Biography
Currently, I am the Director San Jose State University Special Collections & Archives, a position I have held since 2004. Prior to my work in San Jose, I worked in Manuscripts and Archives, Yale University Library (1997-2004) and Davidson Special Collections, UC Santa Barbara(1996-1997). In addition to my work in the SJSU History Department, I have also taught Women’s History and U.S. History as an adjunct history professor at Central Connecticut State University (1998-2004). I have a MLIS from Southern Connecticut State University and an MA in history from California State University, Fullerton. Most of my historical writing has been in the field of Progressive Era history, with a focus on female reform and women’s rights. My current research is focused on the women’s movement during the post-war years in Connecticut (1943-1961), and on the modern women’s movement in the Bay Area from the 1970s to the present.
