Academic career

After an undergraduate at the University of Canterbury (including editing the student paper Canta) and University of British Columbia,[2] Pickles completed a 1996 PhD titled 'Representing twentieth century Canadian colonial identity : the Imperial Order Daughters of the Empire (IODE)' at McGill University. Pickles returned to the University of Canterbury, rising to full professor.[1]

Much of Pickles' work is influenced by postcolonial and feminist approaches.[1][3][4][5][6][7]
