Jacqueline Bach is an assistant professor of English Education and Curriculum Theory at Louisiana State University.

She is the co-editor of The ALAN Review, a journal dedicated to the study and teaching of young adult literature. She is currently examining the representations of the teaching of humanities in school films and television shows.
