Trenton L. Hickman specializes in twentieth-century American literature and Latino literature and is particularly interested in the intersections between the “centers” of twentieth-century American literature and its “margins”–how the production of “border” literatures affects and alters our understandings and reception of more canonical American literatures. Dr. Hickman received a BA in Honors English and University Honors and a MA in English from Brigham Young University, and earned his Ph.D. in English from the State University of New York at Stony Brook. He and his wife Wendy and are the proud parents of Noah, Jonah, and Isaac.
