Deanna Reder

Deanna Helen Reder is a Cree-Métis associate professor of English and the Chair of Indigenous Studies at Simon Fraser University.

"[5] While attending York University for her Masters of Arts, Reder wanted to focus on Indigenous literatures but found it difficult to find enough courses on the topic.

In 2010, Reder published "Troubling Tricksters: Revisioning Critical Conversations" with Linda M. Morra through Wilfrid Laurier University Press.

[11] Two years later, Reder edited Read, Listen, Tell: Indigenous Stories from Turtle Island with Sophie McCall, David Gaertner, and Gabrielle L'Hirondelle Hill.

[12] In 2018, Reder and Alix Shield published documents that had been omitted from "Halfbreed" in 1973, against the wishes of author Maria Campbell, by the book's editors, at the last moment before publication.
