Nichole Gleisner serves as managing editor of Yale French Studies. Previously, she has worked at various publications such as New Haven Review, The Atlantic Monthly, Partisan Review, and Arion. She teaches courses in the translation track in the French Department and relishes her own translation work, such as My Escape (Other Press, 2012), a memoir by French feminist Benoîte Groult, as well as poetry by Lebanese writer Nadia Tuéni. She is currently working on a translation and biography of Joë Bousquet. Her research interests explore the trenches of World War I as rich sites of literary production and she has published articles on these lesser-known écrivains-combattants as well as Guillaume Apollinaire.
