Biography
Emily Deering Crosby is a rhetorical critic of popular culture with research concentrations in intersectional feminist criticism, critical theory, digital studies, and visual rhetoric. Her recent projects and publications are focused on sport culture and controversy, women in 1960’s country music, and negotiations of identity in digital spaces.

Dr. Crosby teaches courses in rhetorical criticism, communication, and digital studies.
