Jessica Linker
Candidate statement
Affiliation: Northeastern University, Boston, Massachusetts, USA
https://cssh.northeastern.edu/faculty/jessica-linker/
I am Assistant Professor of History at Northeastern University, where I co-direct Huskiana Press, an experiential letterpress studio designed to support faculty, students, and community members interested in book history and book arts. For more than a decade I have been SHARP’s liaison to the American Historical Association and have been responsible for programmatic offerings about book history on behalf of SHARP at AHA’s Annual Meeting. SHARP has been extremely important to my scholarly identity since I was a graduate student (because, in part, it was uniquely welcoming to folks on various career paths) and I hope to bring my longstanding enthusiasm for the organization and the study of book history to working on the Board.
