Welcome to David Burkam's personal website!
Instead of the formality of my University of Michigan faculty websites (see Favorite Links above),
this website is more a reflection of my personal interests and non-professional pursuits....
By day I am a faculty member at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, teaching statistics, quantitative research
methods, writing, and the politics of education in both the Residential College and the School of Education.
After work, I retreat into a world of candlelight and Arts & Letters. An unashamed bibliophile, my
passion and collection spill over into every room of my home: old books with personal histories, bumped corners, mysterious
inscriptions, and curious bookplates. And when I'm lucky, tucked between the pages: a faded flower, a calling card, or a scrap
of ribbon.
I also collect tarot decks and Victorian ephemera.
Have you ever heard of Wake-Brook House, publisher of hand-made books during the mid-20th century? Follow the
link above.
I'm now on Facebook...
