Robin Reames

Robin Reames researches and writes about the history of ideas, particularly lost ideas from the ancient Greek rhetorical tradition that can enrich our lives today. While musing about language and persuasion in the ancient world is her day job at the University of Illinois Chicago (where she is an associate professor of English), in her free time, she's a ballet enthusiast, a middle-distance runner, a whiskey drinker, and a conversation hog. She lives in Chicago.
