I have been a faculty member in the Department of Educational Leadership and Research
at FAU since 2000. My primary areas of interest are socio-cultural and historical
factors influencing school leadership, leadership pedagogies, internationalizing
educational leadership, and theorizing on the possible relationships between school
leaders and social justice. Among my most recent articles are the following:

Prior to returning to Florida (I have earned my Ed.D. from Florida International
University), I was on the school leadership faculty at the University of New Orleans
from 1990-2000. Beginning in the historic year of 1968, my educational leadership
journey has taken me from New York City, Gurabo, Puerto Rico, Chapel Hill, NC, Guatemala
City, Washington, D.C., San Francisco, Miami, New Orleans, to Boca Raton. While
at FAU, I have worked on projects in Quito, Ecuador, New Orleans, LA, Kuala Lumpur,
Malaysia, and Glasgow/Stirling, Scotland. The majority of my service to the field
has come through my work with academic journals, serving on the editorial boards
for Urban Education, Educational Administration Quarterly, Journal of School Leadership,
The Professional Educator, The Scholar-Practitioner Quarterly and most recently
the Journal of Research on Leadership Education and the Journal of Cases in Educational
Leadership. I am currently the Associate Editor for the International Journal of
Leadership in Education. Working with Sense Publishers, Tony Townsend and I wrote,
edited and published three books, Leadership for Learning, MacBeath and Cheng, Radicalizing
Educational Leadership, Bogotch, Beachum, Blount, Brooks, and English, and The Elusive
What and the Problematic How, Townsend and Bogotch. I also served as a regional
editor for the International Handbook of Leadership for Learning edited by Townsend
and MacBeath (2011). And my current research is focused on editing a new International
Handbook with Carolyn Shields on Social (In)Justice and Educational Leadership,
with a projected publication date of 2013.
