| Laurie Glover is a poet, novelist, and essayist. Her work, which appears in journals like Nimrod, Terrain, and ZYZZYVA, deals with loss of place and what people do to recover it. She joined the Putah-Cache Bioregion Project in its early days to learn about all the communities--human and otherwise--of the watersheds of Putah and Cache Creeks, which contain the university where she makes her academic home. She taught the first "bioregional adjunct," an expository writing class devoted to the sharing of local knowledge and its value. She considers Nature and Culture is her home within a home. She has team-taught the senior capstone course and a version of NAC 100 that focused on literary and evolutionary representations of human nature. Her newest course, "The Nature of Exploration," to be offered in Fall, 2005, will focus on sixteenth- and seventeenth-century voyage literature. Dr. Glover earned her PhD at The Claremont Graduate University in 1995 with a disseration on English colonial writers in sixteenth-century Ireland. |
