Daniel Story, PhD Candidate in History, Digital Methods Specialist for the Institute Digital Arts & Humanities, and American Historical Review podcast host, will interview Dr. Kathryn Tomasek, Professor of History at Wheaton College with a particular focus on the United States in the 19th century. 

Daniel and Kathryn will explore the role digital methods play in traditional history scholarship and how digital methods support the development of new forms of historical scholarship that make the digital more explicit. They will also trace the impact of digital methods in research and teaching through Kathryn’s own trajectory as both a traditional and digital historian and a history teacher.

This event is co-sponsored by the American Historical Review, the Institute for Digital Arts & Humanities, and the U.S. History Workshop.
