Pippa Holloway
2007

A grant to write a book on the history of the disfranchisement of people convicted of crimes. The project will focus on the U.S. South between 1865 and 1965, and will demonstrate the impact of these laws on individuals and the political landscape, examine campaigns for and against voter disfranchisement, and illuminate the experiences of those who sought to restore their political rights.

Holloway is an associate professor of history at Middle Tennessee State University. She is the author of Sexuality, Politics, and Social Control in Virginia, 1920-1945, published in 2006 by the University of North Carolina Press, and the editor of Other Souths: A Reader, forthcoming in 2007 with the University of Georgia Press. She teaches graduate and undergraduate classes in Southern history, history of sexuality, African-American history, and 20th-century U.S. politics. She received her PhD from Ohio State University.
