Michelle Troy is a professor of English. She teaches English Composition and Literature; English Literature: Romantics, Victorians, Moderns; and Studies in Contemporary British Literature.

Troy’s research interests include:
- Anglo-American culture in continental Europe between the wars
- Modernism and the literary marketplace (crossfeed between publishers, authors, agents)
- Modernism and mass market periodicals
