  Jen Gieseking is a Ph.D. candidate in environmental psychology at The Graduate Center of the City University of New York. Her research focuses on the production of lesbians' and queer women's spaces and places, specifically how and why these spaces have changed and/or remained the same over generations in New York City and what this says about these women's shifting experiences of justice and oppression. Her previous work has examined how the physical, social, and historical campus is affected and reflected in the identity development of its students and alumnae spanning generations throughout the 20th century. She is interested in the sociocultural production and private/public aspects of everyday spaces of identity around sexuality, gender, race, and class, the right to the city and the right to design and produce the city, cognitive and mental mapping methodologies, and feminist and queer pedagogy. She is a member of the Participatory Action Research Collective, has served as a Writing Fellow at Hunter College, a 2008 Fellow of The Center for Place, Culture, and Politics, a 2007 Fellow of the Summer Institute for Geographers of Justice, and a 2008 Woodrow Wilson Women's Studies Dissertation Fellow.
