John Donaldson teaches courses in Native American societies, cultures, and literatures, and well as language and linguistic analysis. He has presented papers on related topics at numerous national and international conferences. He is the author of The Native Americans, part of the American Portfolio Series, distributed by the U.S. Department of State, and has contributed to a book on change in America, The Theme of Cultural Adaptation in American History, Literature, and Film, which has just been published (November 2009) by the Mellen Press. His most recent field work has been in the Dominican Republic, where he has done investigations on two very different subjects: Taino Indian cave art and the English spoken by the descendents of freed African-American slaves, who settled there in the 1820s.
