Bridgett A. Green is the vice president of publishing and editorial director of Westminster John Knox Press. Prior to this role, she taught at Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary as an assistant professor of New Testament. Throughout her career, she has worked in church spaces in the national offices of the PC (USA) and in the academy as a theological educator and book editor in biblical studies (WJK). Her research focuses on the Gospel of Luke, particularly its vision for transformation in sociopolitical dynamics and power differentials in human relationships as a response to the kingdom of God; she often engages the interpretive lenses of narrative criticism, postcolonial criticism, and womanist, and feminist criticisms. A minister of Word and Sacrament in the Presbyterian Church (USA), she earned her PhD in New Testament at Vanderbilt University and MDiv at Princeton Theological Seminary. When she’s not working, volunteering, or watching HGTV and HBO, she enjoys hanging with her elder pit-lab mix, Monk (named after the musician and not the television show); loving on her family, especially her niece and nephew; running in nature; eating great food; and listening to live music.
