克里斯汀Chaney grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area and still loves many things about her Northern California roots — the landscape of golden hillsides, the world-class education system, the social change in the wind (more Harvey Milk than hippies) — as well as the sports teams that always seemed to win.
Her college years were spent mostly at the Los Angeles and Berkeley campuses of the University of California, 但博士. Chaney made the northward migration to 西雅图 — and the University of Washington — when she married a Berkeley graduate student who was being recruited to design Boeing airplanes. 后来, after first taking some time to stay home with her two young children, she also completed her master’s and doctoral work at the UW. 现在,博士. Chaney and her husband enjoy the family’s mountain cabin as well as music, 艺术, 和电影, happy that their two grown kids (and new son-in-law) also live nearby.
Dr. Chaney is also an affiliate faculty member at the University of Washington helping them run an innovative p艺术nership, initially funded by NEH and the PEW Charitable Trusts, to foster connection and promote student learning across the transition from high school to college. 往年, she was assistant director of the UW’s PEW-funded “Preparing Future 教师” program, and helped found the scholarly journal Pedagogy: Critical Approaches to Teaching Literature, Language, Composition, and Culture (Duke University Press).
Her scholarly interests are wide-ranging, beginning with German Idealist philosophy and extending into higher education pedagogy, Romantic and Victorian literature, and narrative theory. She is currently at work on the topic of narrative ethics for a book manuscript.
