Shelley P. Haley is the Edward North Chair of Classics and Professor of Africana Studies at Hamilton College, New York, and (in 2021) President of the Society for Classical Studies. She is an expert in applying Black feminist and critical race approaches to the study and teaching of Classics.

Education

Haley graduated with a BA from Syracuse University in 1972.[1] She was awarded a Danforth fellowship for graduate study[2] and completed her MA (1975) and Ph.D. (1977) at the University of Michigan. Her PhD thesis was titled The Role of Amicitia in the Life of Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus.[3][4]

Career

After graduating, she taught at Luther College (Decorah, Iowa) from 1977 until 1978, and subsequently Howard University (Washington, D.C.) from 1979 to 1985.[2] She was appointed to the faculty at Hamilton College in 1989.[4]

She has also held appointments at Washington University in St. Louis ('Distinguished Visiting Scholar', 2002);[5] and Hobart and William Smith Colleges ('Melvin Hill Visiting Scholar-in-Residence', 2013).[6]

Haley employs Black feminist and critical race approaches to Classics.[7][8] and has worked on a wide range of topics including gender in the ancient world;[9] Latin, Greek, and comparative literature;[10][11][12] race in classical pedagogy;[13] and the role of African-American women (in particular Fanny Jackson Coppin) in Classics.[14] She has described the difficulties of her early career and the process by which she became interested in race in the classical world through teaching students about Cleopatra and researching 19th-century African-American classicists.[2]

Haley participated in the Oxford Round Table in 2003;[15] she has served a four-year term as chief reader for the AP Latin Exam, and has chaired the AP Latin Exam Development Committee.[15]

Haley has also appeared as an expert on Roman History and Cleopatra in the media including TLC's 'Rome: Power and Glory' series (1999),[16] Timewatch 'In Search of Cleopatra',[17] and Netflix's African Queens season 2 on Queen Cleopatra.[18]

Haley was a founding member of The Kirkland Project for the Study of Gender, Culture, and Society;[19] the Institute for Global African Studies (IGAS);[4] and the Multiculturalism, Race, and Ethnicity in Classics Consortium (MRECC). In September 2019 Haley was elected President of the Society for Classical Studies for 2021, making her the Society's first African-American President.[20][21][22]

Haley has been awarded several distinctions for her excellence in teaching and research. These include:

In 2020, The Haley Classical Journal was founded in her honour.[25][26]
