Reedy receives Kress fellowship

Chandra Reedy, art conservation, was among three researchers to receive the 1999 Samuel H. Kress Conservation Publication Fellowship. Established to help professional conservators prepare book-length manuscripts of value to the conservation field, the fellowship offers an $18,000 stipend. Reedy's winning manuscript, Thin Section Petrography of Cultural Materials, will be developed as a practical textbook with an overview of the technique of petrography, including a CD-ROM and color illustrations. A UD faculty member for 10 years, she directs the Ph.D. program in arts conservation research. Reedy earned her B.A. in anthropology from the University of California, Davis, and an M.A. and Ph.D. in anthropology from the University of California, Los Angeles.
