Jerry D. Wallace is a Ph.D. candidate at the University of New Mexico focusing on environmental history and historic preservation – specifically on human-animal relationships and the built environment in the twentieth century. His dissertation examines neighborhood identities in the early Cold War era in which he explores how class, gender, animals, age and the trans-local have shaped built communities in the American West, Southwest, and the borderlands. He currently teaches at New Mexico State University.
