In addition to her role as Associate Director of the Price Lab, Jennifer Conway is Associate Director of the Penn Humanities Forum, which she joined just after its inaugural festival, Celebration of Philadelphia Writers, in spring 1999.

Her first introduction to using a 'keyboard' was far from digital. It was a Smith-Corona portable. They have museums for those things now. She remembers lots of keys jamming – and keeping Wite Out in business. Today’s technology is a cakewalk next to that.

In fact, the smell of old books in libraries transports her. She's also more right brain than left, and, like Dorothy Parker, hates to write but loves to have written.
