ABOUT LAUREL'S WORK
Laurel Thatcher Ulrich is a historian of women and of American history.
Approaching colonial and nineteenth-century New England life with the eye of an anthropologist, Ulrich draws on diaries, household inventories, gravestones, court records, and textile manufacturing for her work. From the minutiae of daily life she derives fresh interpretations of women’s history, economic activity, and gender and community relations in preindustrial America. She is the author of Good Wives: Image and Reality in the Lives of Women in Northern New England (1982), A Midwife’s Tale: The Life of Martha Ballard, Based on Her Diary, 1785-1812 (1990), and The Age of Homespun: Objects and Stories in the Creation of an American Myth (2002). She also edited the book Yards and Gates: Gender in Harvard and Radcliffe History (2004).
