Day is Professor Emeritus at Northern Illinois University, where he served as Professor of English and Director of the First-Year Composition Program for over 20 years. In retirement, Day has two main projects: co-authoring a book on the Japanese in Chicago 1900-1940 with his wife, Takako, and a hyperlocal wildlife photography project that entails daily walks in the woods adjoining NIU and culminates yearly in a local wildlife calendar to benefit the Friends of the NIU Library. Day shows his work at Jubilee Artisans in DeKalb and DeBlois Gallery in Middletown, RI. He also posts his wildlife photos in local bird and photography groups on Facebook.

Soup-er Sunday programs support the J.F.
