简介

I did my undergraduate work at Smith College and Boston University (BA Latin 1968), and received all my graduate degrees from UCLA (MA Latin 1974; MA Greek, 1976; Ph.D. Classics, 1981). I taught at Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles for more than 20 years before joining the faculty at the University of Virginia in 2004. I was a Fellow of the American Academy in Rome in 1982, and a resident in Classics there in 1996; I also spent the academic year 1988-89 as a Fellow at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton. I have been a member of the AP Latin Test Development Committee and a Reader for the AP exam, and I am currently serving as a member of the SAT II Latin Test Development Committee for the Educational Testing Service. My husband, Bernard Frischer, and I enjoy spending time in Rome and traveling in Italy and Europe; I like to read mystery novels and do jigsaw puzzles whenever I can.
