Jeffrey K. Tulis has been a member of the senior faculty of the Department of Government at the University of Texas at Austin since 1988. He has also taught at Princeton, Harvard and Notre Dame. He writes on topics that bridge the fields of political theory and American politics. His work is the subject of a special double issue of the journal Critical Review (2007), where his 1987 book The Rhetorical Presidency is described as "one of the two or three most important and perceptive works written by a political scientist in the twentieth century." That special issue has been republished in 2012 by Routledge as Rethinking the Rhetorical Presidency. He was a founder and co-editor of the Johns Hopkins Series in Constitutional Thought (1988-2010) and he is co-editor of Constitutional Thinking, a new book series at University Press of Kansas.
