Gretchen Wright, BA 2020, wins Middlesworth Award

The David M. Rubenstein Rare Book & Manuscript Library has announced that Gretchen Wright is one of this year’s winners of the Chester P. Middlesworth Award. The Middlesworth committee was deeply impressed with her Senior Honors Thesis, “In the Spirit of Suetonius: A Closer Look at Argus Books’ 1930 The Lives of the Twelve Caesars.” The award, which comes with a cash prize, recognizes the insight and verve of her investigation of an intriguing translation of Suetonius now held in the Rubenstein.
