PERSONAL:

Anne specializes in nineteenth-century British and American Literature, particularly the intersections between literature, religion, and gender. She helped RC launch an Honors Program in 2011 and enjoys serving as the program’s director and sharing her enthusiasm for learning. When she is not working, she can generally be found with her two young children and her husband, Tim. If she’s lucky, they’re at the beach!
