Graduate Student, English Dept., UC Los Angeles

Kate Marshall is a Ph.D. student in English at UCLA. Her dissertation, “Corridor: Communication, Fiction, and the Organization of the American Interior,” looks at the traffic conditions of communication in twentieth-century American fiction through their spatial and informational transit systems. While her recent work is focused on architecture and media in pre-Cold War fiction, she has published on nanotechnology and risk theory, and has co-developed several interactive research projects on elements of narrative. Before beginning her graduate work, Marshall edited and wrote for technology and new media publications in San Francisco and London.
