Stephen lives locally in Concord, Mass., where he is a teacher at Concord-Carlisle High School.

He has done extensive research on educator networks, influences on teacher practice, the process of education reform, the historiography of education, and the creation of supports for LGBT students in public schools.

This research has informed his first book, No Sanctuary, which debuts on Sept. 12.

The book tells the inspiring story of a mostly unseen rescue attempt by a small group of teachers who led the push to make schools safer for these at-risk students.

Their efforts became the blueprint for Massachusetts’s education policy and a nationwide movement, resulting in one of the most successful and far-reaching school reform efforts in recent times.

The book sheds light on this largely overlooked but critical series of reforms, placing the Safe Schools movement within the context of the larger gay rights movement and highlighting its key role in fostering greater acceptance of LGBTQ individuals throughout society.

We are very excited to have Stephen to the store!
