Senior Lecturer at the University of Roehampton specialising in C20th German history. Rock music and tennis fan.
Enormous thanks to @tlgrady68.bsky.social for a fascinating paper @ihrgermanhistory.bsky.social last night - and delighted to finally get my hands on a copy of his amazing new book. It's been an absolute privilege to watch this take shape over the past couple of years.

Roehampton History students have also been working with @wienerlibrary.bsky.social to create a special exhibition on the HMD theme, 'The Fragility of Freedom'. Delighted to see their work now on display in the uni library.

Very pleased to welcome Jeff Bowersox to speak @ Roehampton University today as part of our Enhancement Week & Black History Month. Jeff gave a fabulous paper on 'Listening through the silences of the archive' - a case study of music hall star Josephine Morcashani.

Lovely to be back at the University of Sussex today as an Isaacsohn & André Families' Research Fellow on the Sussex Digital Holocaust Education Project. Looking forward to exploring Mass Observation archive materials!
