Biography:
Professor Holden completed her Ph.D. in
History at Boston University in 2005. Her research and other
professional activities have provided her with opportunities to study
Arabic in Tunisia, work for the US Embassy in Mauritania, examine
historic preservation projects in Egypt, and research colonial
architecture in Mali. Since arriving at Purdue University, she also
assembled and directed a team of undergraduate and graduate students,
who collected social and economic data for a computer simulation of life
in Baghdad, Iraq. Professor Holden is particularly interested in
architecture and urbanism as well as the interconnections between
politics and the environment in the Arab-Islamic Middle East and North
Africa. She is currently working on a book length monograph entitled
The Environment of Power: Famine and Authority in Modern Morocco.
