Dr. Joni Adamson is one of the outstanding scholars in the field of Environmental Humanities, and a delightful person to talk to. Jeff met her when we were both part of an NEH seminar in Environmental and Borderlands History. She embodies the multidisciplinary approach that makes the field so vibrant, teaching and publishing in ecocriticism, environmental justice, and related fields. She’s the Professor of Environmental Humanities, Senior Sustainability Scholar at the Julie Ann Wrigley Global Institute of Sustainability, Program Faculty in Human and Social Dimensions of Science and Technology, Affiliate of Women and Gender Studies, and Director of the Undergraduate Certificate in Environmental Humanities, all at Arizona State University.
