Massachusetts but has lived in the Midwest since 1977.
She received a B.A. from Wellesley College in 1977 and a
Ph.D. from the University of Michigan in 1984. A faculty member in the Department of History at Purdue
University since 1983, she teaches graduate and undergraduate
courses in American women’s history and labor history as well
as the United States history survey and a course in the 1960s.
Cornell University Press published Feminism in the Labor

in Labor History, Feminist Studies, Labor's
Heritage, and the Indiana Magazine of History as well as
in several anthologies and encyclopedias including Work

Crossroads (eds. Lucy Eldersveld Murphy and Wendy Hamand Venet),
and The State of Indiana History 2000 (ed. Robert Taylor).
She has completed a one-volume history of women in Indiana and is
developing a study of women, work, and the political economy of
gender in the twentieth-century Midwest.
