Professional Summary

Kathleen is a Classical Archaeologist who has worked on sites in Italy, Greece, Albania and Turkey. Her love of humble sherds led her to a specialty in ceramic studies. In particular, she is interested in Attic figured wares from archaeological contexts. Her research currently spans a number of ceramic related topics from issues of Attic chronology to iconography to symposia to the Greek household. In addition, her research considers the role trade played in shaping Attic potters’ and painters’ outputs. In general, the goal of Kathleen’s research is to place material culture back into its context of use in order to understand better the people who used the objects. She is currently publishing ceramic material from Troy, Gordion, and the excavations of the Athenian Agora.

When she isn’t poring over pottery, she enjoys knitting and gardening.
