Ann has written two monographs on feminist histories, the first on the American movement of Language poetry and the second on early twentieth-century Australian poetry. She also co-authored The Intimate Archive: Journeys through Private Papers (National Library of Australia, 2009) and co-edited Poetry and the Trace (Puncher and Wattmann, 2013). She has published two poetry collections. She came to Deakin in 2009 after various postdoctoral fellowships, including a Fulbright at Temple and Yale University.
