Dr. Anderson’s research focuses on race and gender in print culture and new media. She is the author of Fictions of Dissent: Reclaiming Authority in Transatlantic Women’s Writing of the Late Nineteenth Century (2010), and her current book project explores women writers’ use of regional magazines as a space to intervene in racialized land settlement questions in turn of the twentieth-century Los Angeles. Her next project will examine histories of literature as a way to promote social justice.
