About Dr. Ditto:
Susan Ditto received a Masters Degree in History from the University of Louisiana at Lafayette in 1990 and a doctorate from the University of Mississippi in 1998. She has been a Visiting Assistant Professor at the University since 2001. Her interests include the history of the family, material culture (such as architecture, clothing, and decorative arts), and the confluence of race and gender in the 19th-century South.
She is Associate Editor of the recent book Mississippi Women: Their Histories, Their Lives (University of Georgia Press, 2003). Published articles include “Evangeline Finds a Home: Material Expressions of Cultural Memory in French Louisiana" (in Elise Marienstras, ed. Private Memory, Collective Memory in Pre-Industrial America, 1994), "The View from the Porch: Households and Community Change in Rural Mississippi” (Mississippi Folklife, Fall 1999), and “Stallions in the Churchyard: Sexuality and Privacy in Rural Mississippi” (in Stallions in the Churchyard and other Reflections on American Culture, forthcoming Spring 2005 ). She penned the official history of the Oxford-Ole Miss Depot and is project historian for the L.Q.C. Lamar House restoration. She also serves on the Walton-Young Historic House committee for the University Museums. Dr. Ditto is currently co-editing two more collections of essays, while working (slowly) on a book about women and families in rural Mississippi, 1830-1910.
