Biography
Stephanie Redekop is a PhD Candidate in the Department of English at the University of Toronto. She holds an MA in English from Boston College. Her dissertation charts a literary history of American public discourse in the 1960s, tracing the role of the fact in the work of seven midcentury essayists who negotiated some of the toughest problems posed in and by American public life. This research is supported by a Joseph-Armand Bombardier Canada Graduate Scholarship, a SSHRC Michael Smith Foreign Study Supplement, the Centre for the Study of the United States, and the Centre for Jewish Studies. Stephanie is a Junior Fellow at Massey College and the Co-Director of the American Literature Research Collaborative. She also works at the Graduate Centre for Academic Communication, where she is a consultant for the Writing SSHRC Proposals course and in the Writing Centre.
