Joanna Scutts

I am a literary critic and cultural historian based in Astoria, NY, but born and raised in London. I write book reviews, author profiles and essays for a variety of print and online publications, including the Washington Post, The Nation, The Wall Street Journal, the Los Angeles Review of Books, Kirkus Reviews, Open Letters Monthly, and Biographile. I hold a PhD in English and Comparative Literature from Columbia University and teach writing at NYU’s Gallatin School.
