Diane Elam
Diane Michelle Elam was born on April 17, 1958 in Riverside, California. Elam is the daughter of father, Douglas Bradley and mother, Leslie J. (Parman) Elam.[1] Elam is a feminist writer, the author of Feminism and Deconstruction: Ms. en Abyme (1994),[2] Romancing the Postmodern (1992) and co-editor (with Robyn Wiegman) of Feminism Beside Itself (1995). A recurrent theme in her work is an argument against the possibility of a complete and definitive representation of woman.[3] Elam went to Kenyon College [4] in 1980, and graduated from Brown University with a Masters of Arts in 1984 and received her Doctor of Philosophy from Brown as well in 1988. Elam was also professor of English literature and critical and cultural theory at Cardiff University in Wales, at Indiana University in Bloomington in the 1990s, and at Bryn Mawr College in Pennsylvania. Before his death in an airplane crash in 1994, she was married to fellow academic Bill Readings, a professor of Comparative Literature at the Université de Montréal.
