Call for Editor

The AAG seeks applications for a cartography editor for our journals, consistent with the AAG JEDI Strategic Plan. The new editor will be appointed for a four-year term that will commence on January 1, 2026. The appointment is expected to be made in the late spring of 2025.

The cartography editor will review and enhance the quality and content of cartographic submissions to the Annals of the American Association of Geographers, The Professional Geographer, the AAG Review of Books, and GeoHumanities and ensure that all information is cartographically appropriate and clearly displayed. The editor will work in coordination with the journal editors and is responsible for all graphics published in the journals. This includes reviewing files for maps, figures, and photographs, to ensure that they satisfy all requirements for publication.

In support of these goals, the editorial candidate should possess demonstrated expertise within cartography, a record of scholarly achievement, a broad perspective on the discipline of geography, respect and affection for its diversity, and an ability to work constructively with authors during the review process. Institutional support for the new editor (especially some time released from teaching) is desirable, but not mandatory. The AAG will provide a stipend of $10,000 per year (or as approved by Council) for the editor, to be used for expenses and honorarium at the editor’s discretion.

The editor will work in coordination with the AAG Publications Director. The Publications Director bears primary responsibility for the logistics of processing manuscripts, and for assembling and coordinating the publication of each issue of the journal in collaboration with the editors and the journal’s publisher. Editor candidates, therefore, should share the AAG Council’s vision of an accessible, decentralized, and collaborative Annals editorship.

The AAG strives to build an editorial team that reflects the diversity of the community we work in and the institutional diversity of our field. The AAG encourages applications from traditionally underrepresented groups such as women, visible minorities, Indigenous peoples, LGBTQ2SI people, veterans, and people with disabilities. Applicants from teaching institutions, Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Predominantly Black Institutions (PBIs), Hispanic Serving Institutions (HSIs), Tribal Colleges, and other Minority Serving Institutions (MSIs), research institutions, Associate degree-granting institutions, and private or public sector and nonprofit organizations are welcome.

Please submit the complete application package by January 27, 2025, via this form. The application package should include the following information:

For questions, please contact AAG Publications Director Jennifer Cassidento.

Stephen Hanna is a full professor of geography and former chair of the Department of Geography at University of Mary Washington. His cartographic editorial experience is extensive, for example, Hanna has served as the cartography editor for two edited volumes on tourism, Mapping Tourism and Social Memory and Heritage Tourism Methodologies, as well as produced dozens of maps for personal publications in both academic and public outlets. As cartography editor, Hanna “enjoys engaging with a wide variety of graphics including some innovative ways of visualizing both qualitative and quantitative information.”

Hanna’s research is focused on critical cartography and heritage tourism, and his expertise is well documented in numerous cartographic projects. Some of his most recent NSF-funded team research involved investigating how slavery is (or is not) addressed in the landscapes, narratives, and performance that constitute southern plantation museums as heritage places.

In addition to ensuring that the maps and figures printed in the AAG suite of journals meet high quality cartographic standards, Hanna envisions his role as editor to include continued mentorship of students, a key component of his current work at an undergraduate focused institution.

Hanna offers the following advice for prospective publishers in geography: “As cartography editor, I’m focused on the maps people create to accompany their articles. Please don’t settle for the default map design options found in most GIS software packages. Take a little time to consider how best to encourage your readers to spend some time examining your maps. After all, you are including them to clearly communicate your findings or to support your argument.”

GeoHumanities has two editors, each of whom serve a four year term, and are assisted with editorial responsibilities by a cartography editor and an editorial board, while staff from the AAG and Taylor & Francis manage various aspects of the production process.
