Chris Campanioni’s research connects media studies with studies of migration to explore the auto-archival practices of people moving across transnational spaces, bringing together the fields of Latinx and diaspora studies, global media studies, and gender and sexuality studies. He received his PhD in the English department at The Graduate Center/CUNY, where he was awarded a Mellon Foundation fellowship and the Calder Prize for his study of the migratory text, which elucidates links between Eastern Europe and Latin America, the Cold War and the twenty-first century by showing how migrants have forecasted and reshaped new media practices and norms. His forthcoming books include a second edition of A and B and Also Nothing (Unbound Editions, 2023 / Otis Books Seismicity Editions, 2020) and Windows 85 (Northwestern University Press, 2024). He is a recipient of the International Latino Book Award (2014), the Pushcart Prize (2016), and the Academy of American Poets College Prize (2013) and his essays, poetry, and fiction have been translated into Spanish and Portuguese, appearing in Best American Essays (HarperCollins, 2022), Diacritics, BOMB, Social Text, Denver Quarterly, American Poetry Review, Fence, and several other journals and anthologies. His translations have been published in Beginnings of the Prose Poem: All Over the Place (Commonwealth Books, 2021) and his multimedia work has been exhibited at the New York Academy of Art. At Baruch, he teaches courses in transmedia aesthetics, creative writing, and composition.
