Anne Kelly Knowles received her master’s and Ph.D. in geography at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. She taught at the University of Wales, Aberystwyth, and Wellesley College, where she was Mellon Fellow in Geography and resident scholar on a research fellowship from the American Council of Learned Societies. Her first book, Calvinists Incorporated: Welsh Immigrants on Ohio’s Industrial Frontier (Chicago, 1997), examined the influence of immigrants’ traditions and social values on their economic behavior. She is now writing a book about the role of skilled ironworkers in the transfer of technology in the U.S. iron industry.
