Maria Krysan, LAS Distinguished Professor of Sociology at the University of Illinois Chicago, has spent decades teaching, researching, and writing about residential segregation. Her multiple award-winning book, Cycle of Segregation, offers an innovative framework for understanding the causes of segregation and served as a springboard for her engaged work, including the book Don’t Go with Tonika Johnson. Krysan has published extensively in academic and non-academic outlets, engages with the media, and often presents her work outside academia, sharing with and learning from advocates, mayors, legislators, housing agencies, real estate agents, researchers, students of all ages, lawyers, library patrons, and more.
