In 2016, while completing her MS in Library Science and MA in Children’s Literature at Simmons University, Gretchen Hohmeyer decided to read one biography on every American president. Now at over 200 books on American history and counting, she is a doctoral student in the Language, Literacy, and Culture concentration of the College of Education at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. Along with her work for the Writing Program, she currently assists with program development for the Partnership for Worker Education at UMass. Her research interests include elementary social studies education, children’s literature, and otherwise unpacking the ways American history is imagined for children.
