KAREN V. KUKIL is Associate Curator of Special Collections at Smith College in Northampton, Massachusetts. For the past sixteen years, Ms. Kukil has supervised the scholarly use of the Sylvia Plath and Virginia Woolf collections in the Mortimer Rare Book Room at Smith College, where she has made the rare book and manuscript collections accessible to undergraduates through lectures and exhibitions. A popular interterm course taught by Ms. Kukil requires students to examine and edit variant drafts of Plath’s Ariel poems, which are also part of the college’s extensive Sylvia Plath Collection.
