From his website:

"I'm Director of the Center for the Advancement of Teaching and Professor of English at Illinois State University, where I teach courses in rhetorical theory, writing, creative nonfiction, narrative theory, and writing program administration. I am immediate past president of the national Council of Writing Program Administrators and Assistant Chair of the Conference on College Composition and Communication. From 1994-98 I edited WPA: Writing Program Administration. For a certain further kind of professional picture, please see my Curriculum Vitae.

For another kind of picture, you'd need to talk to my wife (Becky Bradway, essayist, fictionist, assistant professor at Illinois State University, author of Pink Houses and Family Taverns, and knower of many things rock and roll) or three children (9th grader and artist; college freshman and cellist; college senior and writer). I'm active in Community Theatre, sing in a 16-voice vocal group named Cantus Novus, occasionally play trombone, hack at golf, tennis, and raquetball, despair at the Cubs, and celebrate the Hawkeyes."
