WORKS IN PROGRESS
Legal, but persecuted:
Prostitution in Tanzania (co-written with Hillary Levitt Dunn and Deirdre C. Sullivan)
Forgetting Justice Powell: Sodomy and the Evolving Standards of Decency
A critique of the Supreme Court's rationale in the Lawrence v. Texas decision which struck down state sodomy statutes as unconstitutional violations of liberty. This piece argues that the Court could have overturned these rules as being cruel and unusual (under the Eighth Amendment) --especially after the Court's recent ruling in Atkins v. Virginia.

UNPUBLISHED WORK
Bathhouses as Commercial Sexual Landscapes
Analyzing Law Student's Stories:
Understanding First-Year Life at Northwestern Law (co-written with Jenice Mitchell)
Searching For Connections:
