She is also an Executive Member of the Cervantes Society of America and Associate Editor of their bulletin, Cervantes. She is the autho of Cervantes and the Pictorial Imagination (2009) and co-editor (with John Beusterien) of the collected volume Goodbye Eros: Recasting Forms and Norms of Love in the Age of Cervantes (forthcoming in 2020).
