Nathalie Barton

Nathalie Barton is a Collaborative Humanities Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of History at Vanderbilt University. Her research focuses on twentieth-century U.S. history, urban history, race, and the built environment, with a particular emphasis on rental housing and residential segregation. She holds a PhD from the University of Chicago, specializing in U.S. history from 1900–Present.

Her dissertation, titled *The Terms of the Lease: Race, Inequality, and the Renovation of the Landlord-Tenant Relationship in Urban America*, explores the intersection of housing policies, racial dynamics, and socio-economic inequality in urban settings. She examines how landlord-tenant relationships evolved in the context of systemic segregation and shifting urban landscapes.

Barton's work bridges historical analysis with contemporary issues in urban studies, particularly addressing how housing policies have perpetuated racial and economic disparities. While no specific awards or grants are listed, her research contributes to critical discussions on housing justice and urban inequality.
