He holds a BA from Bowdoin College and has also studied at the Yad Vashem School for Holocaust Studies in Jerusalem and at the University of California Berkeley, where he was a doctoral fellow. He is particularly interested in the work of modern Jewish artists, and his first book—Brushes with the Past: Art History and Jewish Imagination—will be published in 2009. He has taught courses on topics ranging from British comics to modern Jewish philosophy. This fall he will be offering a seminar course in the Art History Department entitled: “Tracing Identities: Jewish Art from Antiquity to the Present.”
