Sandrine Sanos

Sandrine Sanos, Ph.D. is the co-founder of Les Plumes Rouges, a developmental editing, coaching and translation services, launched in August 2023. She spent fifteen years at Texas A&M University – Corpus Christi, a public regional teaching-oriented university in South Texas where she was a Full Professor and initiated its Center for Humanities. Before that, she taught at Earlham College, a private liberal arts college in Indiana, for four years.

A cultural and intellectual historian of 20^th and 21^st century France, she is the author of several books (Stanford & Oxford University Press, etc.) and many articles in French & in English. In addition to fellowships and residencies in Princeton, Washington D.C, Berlin, and Paris, she has received her university’s College and Liberal Arts Excellence in Research & Scholarship Award (2015), a National Endowment for the Humanities Summer Stipend (2016), a National Endowment for the Humanities Hispanic-Serving Institution Faculty Fellowship (2017-2018), the Millstone Prize for Best Article in French history (2019), and a College of Libera Arts Excellence in Teaching Award (2022).

As a former academic and teaching faculty, Sandrine understand the often-inflexible structural conditions that shape our publication and working lives, the need to manage institutional and professional norms often left unspoken and the drastic changes the higher education landscape has undergone. Because scholarly and academic work emerges from dialogue, exchange, and collaboration, she is committed to fostering spaces of engagement that best support professional and institutional goals and projects.
