Anthony Arrigo joined the English Department at UMass Dartmouth in 2009 after finishing his Ph.D. in Rhetoric and Technical Communication at the University of Minnesota. He has taught courses in visual rhetoric, American popular culture, technical communication, document design, and rhetorical theory.

A scholar of rhetoric and visual communication, Dr. Arrigo conducts interdisciplinary research that seeks to illuminate the interconnections between visuality, technology, culture, and nature.  While his research draws primarily from methodological approaches in rhetoric/communication studies, it is also strongly informed by scholarship in cultural studies and environmental studies.
