I am a U.S. urban and environmental historian at Penn State University. My book Nature Next Door: Cities and Trees in the Northeastern United States was published by the University of Washington Press in 2012, and came out in paperback in 2013. I am currently working on my next book project, Dead as Dirt: An Environmental History of the Dead Body.
