Biography

Thomas Miller is a professor in the Rhetoric, Composition and Teaching of English PhD program at the University of Arizona. He directs the Writing Program, which is broadly involved in outreach, writing across the curriculum, and teaching with technology initiatives. His two-volume history of college English studies begins with the eighteenth-century transition from classical to modern cultural studies and traces the interactions between literacy studies and broader changes in literacy. The first volume of _The Formation of College English_ was awarded the Mina Shaughnessy Award from the Modern Language Association in 1997, and research on the second volume has been supported by a fellowship from the National Endowment for the Humanities.
