Who is Pamela Jackson?


Yesterday's exciting announcement about the upcoming release of the Exegesis named Pamela Jackson as the Philip K Dick Scholar undertaking the enormous task of reading and excerpting two file-cabinet drawers of handwritten notes. After a little research by our crack team of reporters we've discovered Pamela Jackson earned an MA and PhD from UC Berkeley's department of Rhetoric. She wrote her dissertation entitled, "The World Philip K Dick Made" in 1999. Her article "Sing Out Ubik" appeared in Histories of the Future, Duke University Press, in 2005.

This is fantastic! She's sounds like the perfect person for the job. Plans are in the works for an interview with her in the middle-distance future.

Wow! I did not think I would ever see the Exegesis in my lifetime. Glad to see you back in the swing of things this past week! Thanks for the news!

This is very exciting news! It's got into the major media outlets like the NYT and BBC too.
