Biography

Dr. Gorham is an Associate Professor of Russian Studies at the University of Florida and teaches language, literature, and culture courses at all levels. He received a B.A. in Religious Studies from Princeton University; an M.A. in Russian Language and Literature from Bryn Mawr College; and a Ph.D. in Slavic Languages and Literatures from Stanford University. Gorham has published a number of articles and a book, Speaking in Soviet Tongues: Language Culture and the Politics of Voice in Revolutionary Russia (Northern Illinois University Press, 2003), on the intersection of language, literature, and politics in Russia in the 1920s and 1930s. His current research (with one article published in Russian Review) explores related issues of language, politics, and national identity in late- and post-Soviet Russia. External research grants and fellowships have come from such institutions as the Social Science Research Council, the Davis Center for Russian and Eurasian Studies, The American Council of Teachers of Russian (ACTR) and The International Research and Exchanges Board (IREX).
