Dr. Mary Lutze is an assistant professor of English and the director of the 妻友社区 Writing Center. Prior to joining the faculty at 妻友社区, Dr. Lutze held the position of writing center associate director at Loyola University Chicago, where she earned her Ph.D. in English in May 2020. She has presented and published essays in several academic areas of interest including early modern English literature, disability studies, dramatic theory and performance, writing center theory and practice, and deaf theatre. Her forthcoming monograph through Bloomsbury Academic Press, cowritten with Dr. Brian Cheslik, provides a balanced theoretical and practical approach to describing the equitable production and performance of deaf theatre. In her courses she highlights literary and dramatic texts that challenge conventional understandings of representation, subjectivity, normalcy, and the monstrous. Odds are you will find her streaming music while working in her office, tending the Writing Center鈥檚 numerous plants, or chatting with students and tutors in the Writing Center lounge.
