Professional Career

The Klingenstein Foundation awards several fellowship grants annually to researchers at major medical institutions, with an eye toward improving diagnosis and treatment of child/adolescent ADHD/depression disorders.

Klingenstein occasionally falls into the traps of her ambitious work Enlarging America by overstating personal and intellectual influences as well as overstating contributions of those studied; for instance, her discussion of literary scholars Allan Guttmann and Jules Chametzky suggests their work constituted part of some “happy progression” towards expanding notions of literary study.
