Erica Rand, appointed in Art and Visual Culture and in Women and Gender Studies, teaches courses on contemporary culture with particular attention to sexuality, race, and gender--and, within these areas, to queer and trans sexualities and genders.  She serves on the editorial board of the journal Radical Teacher.  Her writings include Barbie's Queer Accessories (Duke, 1995) and The Ellis Island Snow Globe (Duke, 2005), winner of the Alan Bray Memorial Book Award from the Modern Language Association's GL/Q Caucus.  She is currently working on a book-length project called Red Nails Black Skates, a study of the politics of pleasure grounded in participant-observation work in recreational figure skating.
