Academic
Published Author
I write about literature, fashion, music, cultural history, and food. My working life began in accessories and shoes, and I then trained as a teacher, before moving into sports and leisure history academia. I consult for museums, galleries, archives and public spaces, like co curating an Olympic sports law exhibition at The Supreme Court in 2012. You can hear my podcasts on a number of outlets, for instance with Greg Jenner and Tom Parry You're Dead to Me History of Football https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p07n8q35 I've written 5 academic books on the history of sport and am moving into public histories, for instance https://www.pen-and-sword.co.uk/Prof-Jean-Williams/a/4185
