Шаблон:Short description Cindi Katz (born 1954 in New York City), a geographer, is Professor in Environmental Psychology, Earth and Environmental Sciences, American Studies, and Women's Studies at the CUNY Graduate Center. Her work concerns social reproduction and the production of space, place and nature; children and the environment; the consequences of global economic restructuring for everyday life; the privatization of the public environment, the intertwining of memory and history in the geographical imagination, and the intertwined spatialities of homeland and home-based security. She is known for her work on social reproduction and everyday life, research on children's geographies, her intervention on "minor theory", and the notion of counter-topography, which is a means of recognizing the historical and geographical specificities of particular places while inferring their analytic connections to specific material social practices.[1][2]

She is a member of the Children's Environmental Research Group at the Center for Human Environments, and sits on the Advisory Boards of the American Studies and the Women's and Gender Studies Certificate Programs, both at the CUNY Graduate Center. She is a member of the Solidarity Board of Community Voices Heard in New York City. Since 2016 Katz has been a Co-Director of the Futures of American Studies Institute at Dartmouth College, where she's been a faculty member since 2003.[3]
