Natalie Wright
Natalie Wright is a doctoral candidate of Design History at the University of Wisconsin—Madison. Her dissertation titled, “Functional Fashions: Dress and Disability in the United States, 1950 - 1975” historicizes the concept of “function” by revealing the significant role that it played in the social construction of disability. It brings to light a national campaign involving leaders in the fields of design, medicine, and public policy that sought to increase disabled Americans’ public visibility and participation through their improved dress. Wright’s doctoral work has been supported by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada and Radcliffe Institute’s Schlesinger Library. She has held curatorial positions at the Helen Louise Allen Textile Collection, the Chipstone Foundation, and the Canadian Museum of History. Wright is also a contributing editor of Material Intelligence magazine. Before joining the University of Wisconsin—Madison, Wright received her MA from the Winterthur Program in American Material Culture, and her BA from the University of Toronto, Trinity College. Beginning in September, Wright will be the 2023-2024 George Gurney Predoctoral Fellow at the Smithsonian American Art Museum.
