Name
Beth Palmer
Candidate Statement

I have been a member of RSVP for over a decade and have been working on periodical culture in the nineteenth century from my PhD onwards. I have particular interests in editorship, women’s magazines, theatrical magazines and serialised fiction. I wrote several entries for the Dictionary of Nineteenth-Century Journalism and the entry on ‘Prose’ for the Routledge Handbook to Nineteenth-Century British Periodicals and Newspapers. I would be interested to serve on the board and to give some time and energy back to the organisation from which I have benefitted greatly (including as a recipient of the Curran fellowship).
