I am a professor of sociology and environmental studies at NYU, where I also teach courses on human-animal relations and chair the Environmental Studies Department. My first book, "The Global Pigeon" (Chicago Press) explores how human-animal relations shape our experience of urban life. My second book, "Up To Heaven and Down to Hell: Fracking, Freedom, and Community in an American town" (Princeton Press) follows residents of a rural Pennsylvania community who leased their land for gas drilling in order to understand how the exercise of property rights can undermine the commonwealth. I've also co-edited the volume "Approaches to Ethnography: Modes of Representation and Analysis in Participant Observation" (Oxford Press, with Shamus Khan), and "Environment and Society: A Reader" (NYU Press). I live in New York City with my wife and two sons. Twitter: @jerolmack
