Biography / Academic Interests
:
Jillian Baez’s research and teaching interests lie in representations of difference and citizenship in media and popular culture, audience studies, media literacy, and globalization. She is currently revising her dissertation into a book manuscript on discourses of the Latina body in media such as advertising, television, film, and news and how Latina audiences make sense of these discourses. Dr. Baez is also designing a future research project on the role of new media in the current immigration reform movement. Her research has been supported by the Ford Foundation, Social Science Research Council, and Tinker Foundation among others. Professor Baez will be joining the faculty in February 2012.
