Stefanie Sobelle received her Ph.D. from Columbia University and her B.A. from Stanford University. Before coming to Gettysburg, she taught in New York City at Sarah Lawrence College, Barnard College, Columbia, and Cooper Union. At Gettysburg, her courses focus on twentieth-century American fiction and poetry, including comparative approaches to the study of US literature. Additional interests comprise the intersections between literature and art, particularly in works of the historical avant-garde. In addition to her teaching and scholarship, she has been a fiction editor at The Brooklyn Rail, and her book reviews have been published in Bookforum, The Financial Times, The Daily Star, Words Without Borders, and The Review of Contemporary Fiction, among others. Her current research projects include an examination of the architecture in and of postmodern novels and a survey of the poetics of mobility in American literature.
