After obtaining a BA in philosophy from the University of Colorado Boulder in 1983, Gruen spent a year as a graduate student at the University of Arizona,[1] then worked for the animal liberation movement.[9] In 1987 she published her first book, Animal Liberation: A Graphic Guide, written with Peter Singer and illustrated by David Hine, then returned to the University of Colorado Boulder in 1989, where she completed her PhD in 1994.[1]
Her teaching posts have included the University of British Columbia (1991–1992); Lafayette College (1994–1997); the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (1997); and Stanford University (1994–1999).[1] After joining Wesleyan University in 2000 as an assistant professor, she became chair of the philosophy department in 2010, professor in the feminist, gender and sexuality studies program in 2011, and the William Griffin Professor of Philosophy in 2015.[1][10] She also co-coordinates a summer fellowship program in animal studies at Wesleyan.[11]
