Liz Fox is the Arts and Academic Programs Coordinator at the Kinney Center for Interdisciplinary Renaissance Studies at the University of Massachusetts Amherst and she is Managing Editor for English Literary Renaissance.

Her book project, “Renaissance Disenfranchisement,” explores how early modern England stretched its colonizing power by extracting economic contributions from marginalized populations at home and abroad.

Liz teaches courses on early modern drama and culture, gender and sexuality studies, and material culture that feature transhistorical approaches to Renaissance studies. She teaches in a diverse range of academic settings, including Wesleyan University’s Center for Prison Education, Bard College’s Clemente Course in the Humanities (Springfield), and Bay Path University’s American Women’s College.
