Mark earned a PhD in English Literature at the University of Wisconsin. His research focused on the relationship between religious dissent and British romantic literature, with a specific interest in the way that writing as a form of self-representation works to foster agency in the writing subject. Lately, Mark is focusing on community writing projects, particularly those involving seniors, to consider how such work might inform our understanding of the importance of the Humanities today.
