I came to Southampton in 1994 as an undergraduate having spent eight years working in finance. A BA English and History was followed by an MA in Jewish History and Culture and then a PhD titled Bearing Witness to the Holocaust in the Courtroom of American Fictive Film.
In 2005-6 I worked as Teaching Fellow in Jewish Fictions and Modernism, then spent four years as the Ian Karten Fellow under the auspices of English and the Parkes Institute for Jewish/non-Jewish Relations. I have since been Karten Lecturer and Karten Associae Professor in Jewish/non-Jewish Relations.
I am currently the Head of English, the co-editor of the journal Holocaust Studies and board member of the British Association for Holocaust Studies.
