Brief biography:
I came to Yale after twenty-five years as a professor of art history at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. While there, I helped found the program in Visual and Critical Studies, an interdisciplinary program uniting the practice of art and scholarship. My scholarship ranges from the theory and practice of art history, the theory of photography, to Jewish visual practices, with books in each of these fields. I am also a photographer whose work focuses currently on human rights. I am a happily married mother of two, grandmother of one, and a dedicated traveler.
