—SPOTLIGHT—

Meet Carol Colatrella


Full Name: Carol Colatrella

Age: 41

Occupation: Associate professor, School of Literature, Communication and Culture (LCC)

Current projects and/or research: I’ve just finished writing a book on Herman Melville’s fiction and 19th-century prison and literacy reform. My next project will analyze popular representations linking women to science and technology.

Years at Tech: 6

Education: Ph.D. in comparative literature, Rutgers University

Marital Status: married to Rick Denton, jazz musician and music teacher

Children: Charlie, 4

The last book I read, and enjoyed, was: The Birth of the Museum: History, Theory, Politics, by Tony Bennett

One CD in my stereo is: Ella Fitzgerald’s songbooks (it’s too hard to decide on one!)

My ideal weekend would include: family time at the beach, any beach.

What brought you to Georgia Tech? The incredible Ivan Allen faculty interested in science and technology studies.

One thing I would like to improve about Georgia Tech is: I would like to enhance the campus climate for underrepresented minorities and women in order to create a richer and more tolerant community for everyone.

One job I had that is not on my resume: researcher for a company investigating court and tax records for real estate title insurance.

When I was younger I wanted to be: a math teacher.

Most people don’t know that I: earned a bachelor’s degree in liberal arts with a major in philosophy and a minor in math.

My most important achievement is: collaborating with colleagues on programs for women, including the [School of History, Technology and Society] and LCC minor in women, science and technology.
