Biography
Dr. Amanda J. Davis received her Ph.D. in English with a Ph.D. Concentration in Women's Studies from the University of Florida. She has taught in the Center for Women’s Studies and Gender Research at UF since 2001, with recent courses including incarcerated women, transnational feminism, global violence against women, women and poverty, women’s autobiographies, and interdisciplinary perspectives on women. Her own work in these areas has been published in such journals as Frontiers, MELUS, Women's Studies Quarterly, Feminist Theory, and a number of reference collections. She is currently at work on her manuscript, Writing from the Women’s Prison: Autobiographical Texts by Incarcerated Women, which was the subject of her doctoral dissertation.
