Deborah Hutton, Assistant Professor of Asian and Islamic art history, joined The College of New Jersey in 2004. Her specific area of focus is Indo-Islamic art, but she teaches a range of courses covering the arts of Central, South, and East Asia from the Bronze Age to the present. Deborah received her PhD and MA from the University of Minnesota and her BA from Penn State University. She previously taught for the University of Pittsburgh's Semester at Sea study abroad progam and at Skidmore College in Saratoga Springs, NY.
Deborah's research examines the roles artistic production played in identity formation and intercultural exchange at the princely courts that ruled over the Deccan region of India between the 16 th and early 20 th centuries. Her book manuscript, The Art of the Court of Bijapur , which traced the development of painting and architecture at Bijapur during the 16 th and 17 th centuries, won the American Institute of Indian Studies Studies Edward Cameron Dimock Jr. Prize in the Indian Humanities. It will be published by Indiana University Press in 2006. Deborah also co-edited Asian Art: An Anthology , which is forthcoming from Blackwell Press, and which will be, when it is published, the first anthology devoted to Asian art. Her current research project looks at the images that the celebrated late 19 th -century Indian photographer, Raja Deen Dayal, took for the Nizam of Hyderabad.
