I received my PhD in Philosophy at the University of Maryland, College Park, in 1982. I have taught in the Department of Philosophy at the University of Kentucky since 1986. Before that, I taught in the Department of Philosophy at Louisiana State University (1982-1986). My research interests span ethical theory, practical ethics, social and political philosophy, philosophy of law, feminist theory, critical race theory, and the places where these areas of study intersect. My current research involves digitally filming in-depth interviews of feminist philosophers, many from the first cohort of feminist philosophers in North America. I am Director of the Gender and Women's Studies Program and I participate in the interdisciplinary Social Theory Program at the University of Kentucky, both of which now offer graduate certificates. I have recently served as the editor of the American Philosophical Association Newsletter on Feminism and Philosophy, and on the American Philosophical Association Committee on the Status of Women. I am a founding member of FEAST, the Association for Feminist Ethics and Social Theory, and I serve on the FEAST Steering Committee. I also serve on the American Philosophical Association Board of Officers, the Council to the Chair of the APA Board, the APA Committee on the Status and Future of the Profession, and as Chair of the APA's Committee on Inclusiveness in the Profession.
