Bio:

My research and teaching centers on food history and the 1960s American counterculture. My most recent publications include "The Life and Death of Mr. Organic" in the NEW REPUBLIC online (August 2014) and "Back to the Kitchen" in MS. Magazine (Winter 2013). Currently I am working on book titled FOOD FOR DISSENT: NATURAL FOODS POLITICS AND CULTURES SINCE THE 1960s. I have been teaching history and humanities at BUCKS since 2006.
