Kim Haines-Eitzen (Ph.D., University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, 1997) is Associate Professor of early Christianity and early Judaism and Chair for the Department of Near Eastern Studies. Her Guardians of Letters: Literacy, Power and the Transmitters of Early Christian Literature (Oxford University Press, 2000) is a social history of the scribes who copied Christian texts during the second and third centuries. She is currently working on another book that deals with the intersection of gender, text transmission, and literacy in early Christianity.
