Evelyn Blackwood

Purdue University

PhD from Stanford University. She is Associate Professor in Anthropology and Women’s Studies at Purdue University, West Lafayette, Indiana, U.S.A. She has published a number of works addressing topics such as Native American female two-spirits, tombois in Indonesia, gender and power, matrilineal kinship, and theories of sexualities Dr. Blackwood’s research interest and passion throughout her career has been women’s sexualities outside the West. Her desire to research this topic was driven by the invisibility of women’s same-sex relations globally and the lack of effort by scholars to examine the processes particular to women’s sexualities and female masculinities.
