Laura Mayron is a Lecturer at Boston University’s Department of Hispanic Languages and Literatures within the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences. A proud BU GRS alumna, she holds a PhD in Hispanic Languages and Literatures (2023), MA in Spanish (2018), and a BA in English and Spanish from Wellesley College (2016). Her research focuses on Hispanic literature, particularly Federico García Lorca’s poetry and queer studies in surrealism.
