Biography

​Davy Knittle (he/they) works at the intersection of queer and trans studies, urban studies, the environmental humanities, and modern and contemporary U.S. literature and culture. His current book project situates urban studies as a generative framework for queer and trans ecology through an archive of queer and trans city making practices in New York from 1950 to 2020. Davy came to UD in January 2023 from Princeton University, where he was HMEI/Princeton Mellon Fellow in Architecture, Urbanism, and the Environment. Davy's scholarship has been recently published or is forthcoming in PMLA, Feminist FormationsGLQ: A Journal of Lesbian and Gay Studies, and ISLE: Interdisciplinary Studies in Literature and Environment. ​
