Jacqueline Wernimont

Wernimont studied English and molecular biology at the University of Iowa. She moved to Brown University for her graduate studies, earning a master's degree and PhD in English Literature. When she started graduate school she worked on how postcolonial literature and the accounting of death were related. Wernimont worked on the Brown University Women Writers Project, where she began her career as a text encoder and ended up as a project manager. The Women Writers Project, which later relocated from Brown to Northeastern University, looks to reclaim the importance of pre-Victorian women's writing. == Research ==
