  • Care and Capitalist Crisis in Anglophone Digital Landscapes: the Case of the Mompreneur
    Care and capitalist crisis in anglophone digital landscapes: the case of the mompreneur Meredith Johnson Krueger A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts University of Washington 2015 Committee: Victoria Lawson Sarah Elwood-Faustino Luke R. Bergmann Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Geography © Copyright 2015 Meredith Johnson Krueger 1 University of Washington Abstract Care and capitalist crisis in anglophone digital landscapes: the case of the mompreneur Meredith J. Krueger Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Victoria Lawson Department of Geography The term “mompreneur” has fallen into heavy usage in anglophone media since 2008. A mesh of two ideologically-loaded words, “mom” and “entrepreneur,” the mompreneur is frequently defined by the functional meaning of these two words, but in this thesis I develop a more specific definition and study her as a discursive figure located at a particular intersection of identities. I argue that the mompreneur is a normative ideal in anglophone techno-utopian discourses who structures emergent political-economic relations. I find that she is overwhelmingly constructed as a high-achieving, flexible, creative, multi-tasking “supermom” who makes use of digital information and communication technologies to run a business from home while maximizing quality time with her (biological) children. I ask, what does the mompreneur’s idealized lifestyle and its complementary narratives tell us about the reproduction of white supremacy, heteropatriarchy and capitalism in a colorblind, postfeminist techno-optimist context? What can she tell us about the governance of care amidst economic relations increasingly mediated through digital technology? I take the discourse of mompreneurship as a case study by which to analyze the production of gendered and entrepreneurial subjectivities in relation to capitalist crisis.

  • Lincoln Center 2013/14 Annual Report
    Lincoln Center 2013/14 More than 5,000 people came to Hearst Plaza for the world premiere performances of John Luther Adams’s Sila: The Breath of the World, a commission for Lincoln Center Out of Doors and the Mostly Mozart Festival in the Paul Milstein Pool and Terrace, Laurie M. Tisch Wallpaper Illumination Lawn, and Barclays Capital Grove. B Lincoln Center Lincoln Center 1 to prepare, certify, and place much-needed, highly qualified music, dance, theater, and visual arts teachers in New York City’s public schools. Helping families engage with the performing arts is a long-term investment both in their own lives, and in the future of Lincoln Center; the young families we reach today are more likely to fill our halls in years ahead. This summer’s Lincoln Center Out of Doors season, with more than 100 events, was rich in family-friendly productions and free activities. Multiple generations enjoyed the Deep Roots of Rock & Roll concert and Baby Loves Disco, a dance party for toddlers and their parents. These programs were offered free, along with weekly Target® Free Thursdays and monthly Meet the Artist Saturdays in the David Rubenstein Atrium. We will be launching Family-Linc and other initiatives in the coming months. We are also expanding our use of digital technology to connect Lincoln Center with an ever-widening audience. During Lincoln Center Out of Doors, a quarter of a million people enjoyed our live concerts, and tens of thousands more watched our live streams of the memorial tribute concert to Pete and Toshi Seeger, and of performances by Jed Bernstein and Katherine Farley Dear Friends, artists like Cassandra Wilson and Rosanne Cash.
