Author Biography
Helene (Heleen) van Rossum is a Dutch-born archivist, historical researcher, and writer who has lived and worked in Princeton most of her life. At Mudd Manuscript Library, which holds the Princeton University Archives, she processed and wrote about collections and curated exhibits, often working closely with Daniel Linke. She is passionate about finding stories behind archival documents and engaging with history creatively. As a children's book writer, she has written several picture books. She is presently focusing on historical fiction and sharing instructions and patterns to act out stories from the past with shadow or silhouette puppets.
Daniel J. Linke received bachelor's and master's degrees from Case Western Reserve University and worked at three archives before starting at Princeton University Library in 1994 as head of Mudd Library's technical services. Between 2002 and 2019, he served as the University Archivist and Curator of Public Policy Papers, supervising the acquisition, description, promotion, and access to the University Archives. As the University has reckoned with its past, he coordinated the archival exhibit about Woodrow Wilson's contested legacy and served on the Princeton and Slavery project. He became the University Archivist and Deputy Head of Special Collections in April 2020.Pay with
