| Anna Andrzejewski | 2001 | Ph.D. | https://www.arthistory.udel.edu/Images Profile Alumnus/Graduate Alumni/Andrzejewski-Anna.jpg | Professor of Art History, UW Madison | <p></p><p>The Hagley Museum and Library, located in Wilmington, Delaware, recently named Department of Art History alumna<strong> </strong>Dr. Anna Andrzejewski (Ph.D., 2001) as the <a href="https://www.hagley.org/research/grants-fellowships/past-grant-recipients" target="_blank">Hagley-NEH fellow in residence</a> for the fall of 2022. Andrzejewski is currently a faculty member in art history at UW Madison, where she is also the Bradshaw Knight professor in environmental humanities in the Nelson Institute. At the end of the fellowship (spring 2023), she will become a resident fellow at the Institute for Research in the Humanities at Madison and resume in their Department of Art History department too.</p><p>These fellowships will allow Andrzejewski to complete a book on the history of post-World War II vacation and retirement communities in South Florida, tentatively titled <em>The Creation of South Florida's White, Middle-Class Retirement & Vacation Landscape, 1945-1970</em>. According to the Hagley, this is a project that can be parsed as an interest the previously unexamined ways “in which suburbanization worked to bolster white, middle-class hegemony."</p><p>As a graduate student at UD, Anna Andrzejewski's work already showed great promise. Her dissertation won the University's Sypherd Prize for the best dissertation in the Humanities in 2001. This earlier work had been supervised by pioneer leaders in the field of American vernacular and historic architecture studies including, at the head of her committee, Professor Bernie Herman (currently George B. Tindall Professor of Southern Studies in the American Studies, Folklore, and Art Department at UNC Chapel Hill) joined by now-emeriti Professors Damie Stillman (Art History), David Ames (Biden Institute/Center for Historic Architecture and Design) and, externally, Dell Upton (UC Berkerley, College of Environmental Design).​<br></p> | https://www.arthistory.udel.edu/Images Profile Alumnus/Forms/DispForm.aspx?ID=19 | |
