Victor Ultra Omni, M.A. (They/Them), is a PhD candidate in the Department of Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies. Their dissertation, The Love Ball: A History of New York City’s House-Structured Ballroom Culture 1972-1992, provides a historical treatment of the origins of ballroom culture. They use methods of oral history, participatory action research, and broader memory work to preserve the histories of the pioneers of New York City’s house-structured ballroom culture. As a trans masculine Afro-Latine memory worker, teacher, and writer, Victor unearths archives of the past to imagine the future and make sense of the present.
