I'm the Director of Academic Programs at the Hannah Arendt Center at Bard College. Before coming to Bard, I taught at the University of North Carolina and at Juilliard.
My first novel was published in 2018 and my latest book on the literary Hudson River and the Rhine was published in the spring. I'm currently working on a collection of short stories.
As a translator, I specialize in texts from English into German. In the last ten years I have translated both shorter texts and entire books in the fields of politics, history, the environment, art and literature.
From time to time I paint. My works have been exhibited in galleries in New York and featured in magazines in the U.S. and Germany.
