| Introduction | I am a cultural historian who writes about two subjects: theatre/performance and childhood. Sometimes I study these topics together; other times I study them separately. In addition to Racial Innocence: Performing American Childhood from Slavery to Civil Rights, my books include the edited anthology Cast Out: Queer Lives in Theater and a Jewish feminist children’s book titled Terrible, Terrible! My essays have appeared in PMLA, Social Text, African American Review, American Literature, J19, Theatre Journal, Modern Drama, and other journals. I am the Dillon Professor of American History and Professor of African and African American Studies and of Studies of Women, Gender, and Sexuality at Harvard University. I'm also a faculty member in Harvard's doctoral program in American Studies and undergraduate program in Theater, Dance, and Media. With Stephanie Batiste and Brian Herrera, I edit the book series Performance and American Cultures for New York University Press. Visit me at http://scholar.harvard.edu/robinbernstein/home. |
