Bio
Dr. Lori A. Felton joined the Office of Merit Awards as Assistant Director in 2017. She primarily advises students who are applying for Fulbright Study Grants, Fulbright Teaching Assistantships, and Boren Awards, as well as the Killam Fellowship, the Thomas R. Pickering Foreign Affairs Fellowship, the Rangel Program and the Payne International Development Fellowship.

Dr. Felton earned her advanced degrees in art history from Bryn Mawr College. She received her undergraduate degree in liberal studies from Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ in 2005, graduating magna cum laude with university honors and departmental honors in art history. The recipient of national and international awards, her distinctions include a Fulbright study grant, an Austrian-American Educational Commission English teaching assistantship, a DAAD scholarship, the Ronald E. McNair Post-baccalaureate Achievement Program, and an Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ Phi Theta Kappa scholarship.

Before returning to Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ, she worked as an independent art historian in the United States and Austria. Teaching, researching, and writing her dissertation, "Egon Schiele's Double Self-Portraits," allowed her to spend four years in Vienna, Austria, engaging deeply with the rich cultural past and present. Her publications include an entry in the Neue Galerie catalogue for the 2014 "Egon Schiele: Portraits" exhibit, an essay in "German Visual Culture Volume Three: The Doppelgänger" and a contribution to a critical anthology on Doppelgänger edited by Mary D. Edwards. She is excited to share her expertise teaching "The Modernist Explosion" in fall 2024.
