Marci R. McMahon, educator and writer, has over 20 years of experience leveraging her voice as an advocate for Latinx stories in curriculum and on theater stages.
As an educator and scholar, my work centers on the inclusion of Latinx stories in literature, theater, and performance spaces. My writings appear in field defining publications in Latinx studies, including in The Chicano Studies Reader: An Anthology of Aztlán, 3rd & 4th editions; Aztlán: A Journal of Chicano Studies; Chicana/Latina Studies: The Journal of MALCS; Frontiers: A Journal of Women’s Studies; Journal of Equity & Excellence in Education; Text & Performance Quarterly; and Performance Matters. I am the author of Domestic Negotiations: Gender, Nation, and Self-Fashioning in US Mexicana and Chicana Literature and Art (Rutgers University Press, 2013). My forthcoming book, Listening to Chicanx Theater and Performance during Times of Crisis, explores the relationship between music, aurality, and citizenship in Chicanx theater and performance created and produced during watershed moments of social activism (Ohio State University Press).
