Melisa Cahnmann-Taylor

Melisa Cahnmann-Taylor

MELISA “MISHA” CAHNMANN-TAYLOR, PhD, Associate Professor of Language and Literacy Education at the University of Georgia, is interested in the relationship among language, culture, literacy, and power. She studies bilingual education and multilingual classrooms as sites of social conflict, where possibilities exist for social change, justice, and democracy. She recently coauthored (with Richard Siegesmund) Arts-Based Research in Education: Foundations for Practice, which argues for hybrid forms of qualitative inquiry that embrace traditional methods alongside nontraditional, feminist, poetic, narrative and arts-based approaches. She has published her poetry, scholarship, and scholARTistry in journals such as Anthropology & Humanism, Teachers College Record, Educational Researcher, Language Arts, Linguistics and Education, Anthropology and Education Quarterly, Women’s Review of Books, Journal of Latinos and Education, Critical Inquiry in Language Studies, and American Poetry Review. She won the 2004, 2005, and 2008 Dorothy Sargent Rosenberg prize for poetry and judges the annual poetry contest for the Society for Humanistic Anthropology.
