Research Interests
My field is Religion in North America, and my research interests range from religion in colonial America to evangelicalism to team sports (and religion) in North America.
I recently completed a book about team sports in North America, and I have turned toward research and writing a biography of the late Mark O. Hatfield, Republican senator from Oregon. In addition, I am working on a documentary and companion book about Orthodoxy in Alaska.
