Regina Kunzel’s current project explores the encounter of sexual- and gender-variant people with psychiatry in the mid-twentieth-century U.S. Drawing on multiple archives, she argues for the importance of psychiatric scrutiny, stigma, and medicalization in the making of modern sexuality.
Kunzel is Professor of History and Gender and Sexuality Studies, as well as the Director of the Program in Gender and Sexuality Studies at Princeton University.
