520			_aThe Public Professor is a practical guide for academics who want to use their research to influence public debates, policy decisions, and social change. Drawing on her own experience as a scholar-activist in the field of economics and LGBTQ+ rights, M. V. Lee Badgett offers a roadmap for engaging with broader audiences beyond academia. The book outlines how scholars can translate complex research into accessible, impactful formats such as op-eds, media interviews, blogs, legislative testimony, and collaboration with advocacy organizations. Badgett discusses the challenges of navigating academic norms, maintaining credibility, and finding time and institutional support for public engagement. Each chapter blends advice with real-world examples from scholars who’ve successfully bridged academia and public life. It emphasizes that being a “public intellectual” doesn’t require fame—just commitment, clarity, and strategic action.
