Kathryn Wolford completed a B.A. in early modern history at the American University of Paris in 2004. Currently a doctoral candidate in History at CGU, she is working on a dissertation which examines popular debate over recurrent plague outbreaks in early modern England under the direction of Professor Lori Anne Ferrell.
