Ann Snitow May 9, 1943-August 10, 2019 Ann Snitow, a founding faculty member of Lang College and the creator of the Gender Studies Program at the New School, passed away on August 10, 2019. She was a beloved member of the Literary Studies faculty. While indeed her books and essays are crucial texts in feminist studies and in the life of the mind, as Literary Studies colleagues our remembrances here are more personal, testaments not just to her work but to the power of her being.

The Literary Studies department is proud to announce the inaugural Robin Mookerjee award, which will honor a student whose creativity and passion for literature have some of the features of Professor Mookerjee’s writing and teaching. This award will be presented at the Dean’s List and Student Award Ceremony to be held in Tishman Auditorium on Monday, April 24, 2017 at 6pm.
The presentation of the award will be accompanied by a special tribute to Professor Mookerjee. Stephanie Leone, a recent Lang alumna, will read Professor Mookerjee’s late unpublished poem “Adventures in Nocturnal Perambulation.”
