Margaret Vandenburg serves as Senior Lecturer in the Department of American Studies and English at Barnard College, where she has taught since 1998 and received the Emily Gregory Award for Excellence in Teaching in 2004. Her institutional affiliation spans both literary scholarship and creative practice within the humanities.
Her educational foundation includes:
- Ph.D., M.Phil., M.A. from Columbia University
- B.A. from the University of Idaho
Academic work centers on Modernism and Postmodernism through the lenses of American literature and cultural studies, with significant contributions to creative writing across multiple genres. Her research examines editorial practices, feminist biography, and intersections of literature with social issues including autism and wartime trauma.
Publication trends reveal dual scholarly and artistic trajectories: academic works analyze modernist authors and pedagogical frameworks while creative outputs address contemporary political crises through novels and theatrical works. This synthesis manifests in projects like her Iraq War requiem and election disinformation play.
Recognition includes:
- Emily Gregory Award for Excellence in Teaching (2004)
No public records indicate formal student advising or research grant administration. Current activities include theatrical collaborations with #3AD, TodayTix, and New York Theatre Workshop during her 2022-23 leave status.
Performance projects demonstrate cross-institutional partnerships, notably the opera Ada with the Center for Contemporary Opera exploring computational history through Romantic-era frameworks.
