ABOUT ME
I teach history at Carleton University in Ottawa, Canada where I am Professor of History and Co-Director of the Carleton Centre for Public History. As a public historian I am especially interested in historical representation and historytelling in theatre, film, and other forms of performance. As an early modern historian my recent focus has been on dramatic representations of witchcraft and social inequality. As well as research, teaching, and supervising, I actively collaborate with museums, with theatre amateurs and professionals, and with community activists exploring innovative ways of making history visible in our everyday lives.
