This is a hard one, but maybe this is interesting–I spent my junior year in Salzburg and have had multiple grants to study, teach, and do research in Austria.
I was a professor of German at UM-Dearborn and taught all levels of German. I also taught in the now defunct Master of Liberal Studies program, and the honors and women’s studies programs. My research focuses on Austria cultural and literature, and memory and exile studies. I am presently working on a edition of a group correspondence carried out by Jewish-Austrian classmates. In addition, I am writing a collective biography of this group.
I’m excited to go to parts of the one-time Austro-Hungarian monarchy that I don’t know. Moreover, having worked in Holocaust studies, I have long wanted to make a memorial trip to Warsaw and Auschwitz. The stops along the way come up in much of Austrian literature, which makes it even more exciting.
