I'm a historian who writes about the evolving relationships of people with animals. My blog, The Pet Historian, focuses on Americans' relationships with their pets from the eighteenth century to the present. I use material and visual culture to help tell this complicated and fascinating story. Working with my graduate students at the University of Delaware, I also created a website called Disposable America, where we use digital journalism to explore the history of disposability and its material legacy.
