About the Author
Lifelong Mets fan, yes I have suffered through the good and the bad. Guess who my favorite Met was?--Think high and long in homeruns!!

The Negro Leagues I published my first book with McFarland in 2002, entitled The Negro Leagues.

Encyclopedia of Women and BaseballMy latest book came out in summer 2006, Encyclopedia of Women and Baseball. This is a comprehensive work on the women who have been involved in the game as owners, players, managers, writers, etc.

I am an Assistant History Professor at Kent State University, Stark Campus and have been since the fall of 1995. One of the many courses I teach there is a U. S. sports history class and in the fall of 2003 I started teaching a new course entitled Baseball in Literature and History with a colleague in the English department, Dr. Rob Sturr.

I am also deeply involved with SABR. I am the chairwoman of SABR's Women in Baseball committee and am also on the Latin America and Negro Leagues committees.
