Angela Reyes received her Ph.D. from the University of Pennsylvania
in 2003.
She teaches courses in the structure and history of English, language
and ethnicity, and sociolinguistics. Her primary research areas
are in linguistic anthropology, discourse analysis, and Asian American
studies. Examining the language practices of Asian Americans and
other racial minorities, her current work is interested in the ways
in which links between dialects and ethnic groups become established,
disrupted, and appropriated in discursive interaction. She has conducted
two main ethnographic and discourse analytic studies: a four-year
study of Southeast Asian American teenagers in an after-school videomaking
project at an Asian American community arts organization in Philadelphia;
and a one-year study of Korean American fifth graders in an Asian
American cram school in New York City.
