Dr. Mary Jo Kane, professor and director of the School of Kinesiology, has been asked to write an article for a special edition of The Nation magazine. Dave Zirin, author of several books and sports editor for the magazine, contacted Dr. Kane last month about writing an article on the sexualization of female athletes.
Zirin is a frequent guest on MSNBC, ESPN, and Democracy Now. He also hosts his own weekly Sirius XM show, Edge of Sports Radio. He was named one of the UTNE Reader‘s “50 Visionaries Who Are Changing Our World.”
