BIOGRAPHY

Rosa-Linda Fregoso photo Prior to joining the faculty at the University of California, Santa Cruz, I held faculty appointments at UC-Davis (Women and Gender Studies; Chicana/o Studies) and at UC-Santa Barbara in the departments of Communications and Chicano Studies. I have a PhD in the Language, Society & Culture Program (Communication & Literature) from the University of California, San Diego; and a BJ from the University of Texas, Austin.

Before coming to Academia, I worked as a radio and television journalist. Between 1979-1982, I produced and hosted “The Mexican American Experience” for the Longhorn Radio Network (an NPR affiliate). A weekly radio-program, “The Mexican American Experience,” aired nationally on public and commercial radio stations. From 1977-79, I produced and hosted “Telecorpus,” a daily talkshow that aired on KORO-TV.
