about me

I work in the School of Information at the University of Michigan. SI is an interdisciplinary professional school focused on how people, information, and technology interact.

My research explores the history, politics, and cultural aspects of computers, information infrastructures, and global climate science. Here is my curriculum vitae.

I directed the University of Michigan Science, Technology & Society Program from 2000-2003, and served as Acting Director again in 2005-06. The program sponsors a distinguished speaker series, a biweekly faculty colloquium, a graduate certificate, and an undergraduate minor.
