Sterling Stuckey
Sterling Stuckey is Distinguished Professor Emeritus of History at University Of California, Riverside. Intensely interdisciplinary work has enabled Stuckey to pioneer scholarship in History, Music, Dance, Folklore, Religion, and Literature-all areas of study that inform his work on Melville. By bringing the insights of several disciplines to bear on major questions, he is able to discover unique pathways to understanding. His methodology is a reflection of the lived experience of growing up in southern black communities where the arts especially are integrated and at the core of the historical experience.
