Lroi Gruen is a professor of philosophy, feminist, gender, and sexuality studies, and environmental studies at Wesleyan University, where she also coordinates Wesleyan Animal Studies. Her work lies at the intersection of ethical theory and practice, with a particular focus on issues that affect those often overlooked in traditional ethical investigations, for example, women, people of color, and nonhuman animals. She has published extensively on topics in ecofeminist ethics, animal ethics, and environmental philosophy. She is the author of Ethics and Animals: An Introduction (Cambridge, 2011), the co-editor of Reflecting on Nature: Readings in Environmental Philosophy and Ethics (Oxford, 2012), and the forthcoming Ecofeminism: Feminist Intersections with Other Animals and the Earth (Bloomsbury, 2014).
