Why Is Sarah B. Pomeroy Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Sarah B. Pomeroy is an American Professor of Classics. Early life and education Sarah Pomeroy was born in New York City in 1938. She attended the Birch Wathen School, taking Latin and ancient history among other subjects. She graduated high school at age 16, and began a degree course at Barnard College in Classics, taking courses at Columbia University alongside those at Barnard, due to the small size of the Barnard department at the time. Pomeroy graduated in 1957, at the age of nineteen, and began a course of graduate study at Columbia, under the supervision of Eve Harrison and Otto Brendel. During her graduate study she worked on papyrology with John Day, and from 1962 to 1963 she also undertook a course of study in Roman Law at Columbia. Her PhD dissertation studied the first published lease of an olive grove from Karanis in Egypt.
