Please join us in congratulating our colleague Dr. Fernanda Perrone on being named a Society of American Archivists Fellow. This award recognizes outstanding contributions to the organization and to the archives profession. It is the highest honor SAA bestows on an individual.
In the course of her over thirty year career, spent primarily here at Rutgers Special Collections and University Archives, Fernanda has made her mark on the profession through documenting underrepresented groups, mentoring emerging archivists, and fostering international collaborations. Her research focuses on women’s history, gender studies, the history of Rutgers, and the history of westerners in Japan during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
