Debra Hawhee is McCourtney Professor of Civic Deliberation at Penn State University. She studies and teaches rhetoric, the art of communication. She writes histories of rhetorical theory that draw out rhetoric's other-than rational dimensions—feeling, bodies, sensation, imagination.
Professor Hawhee has published extensively on rhetorics, including several award winning books: Rhetoric in Tooth and Claw: Animals, Language, Sensation (Winner, Rhetoric Society of America's 2018 Book Award) and Moving Bodies: Kenneth Burke at the Edges of Language (Winner, The National Communication Association's 2010 Diamond Anniversary Book Award).
