Author: Candace Spigelman

Selection Statement:

The late Candace Spigelman, former associate professor of English at Penn State Berks, was my dear friend and colleague. I will never be able to think about Penn State without thinking about Candace. Candace died in December 2004; she had planned to apply for promotion the next year, and her record was so strong that she surely would have received it. Candace would have been so proud of my achievements, and I share the wonderful feelings associated with promotion to full professor with my late friend.
