I am a Professor of Philosophy and Director of Graduate
Studies in Philosophy at Harvard University, where I have
taught since 1991. From July 1996 through June 2002, I was Chair of the Department of Philosophy.
(The current chair is Sean Kelly.) Before coming here, I held
positions at Yale, the University of
California at Santa Barbara, and the University of Chicago, as well as visiting
positions at Berkeley and UCLA. I served as President of the Eastern Division of the American Philosophical Association in 2008-2009, and held a Mellon Distinguished Achievement Award from 2006-2009.
I work on moral philosophy and its history, practical reason, the nature of agency, personal identity, normativity, and the ethical relations between human beings and the other animals.
