Research Focus
My research focuses on male homosexuality in the Irish Diaspora, c. 1884-1967 with a focus on the movement of queer Irish men between Ireland, London, and New York. In particular, I focus on the experiences of queer emigration from Ireland and the role of Irish in London and New York's queer subcultures in the early- to mid-twentieth century.
