Allinson (1871-1932), born Anne Crosby Emery in Hancock Point, Maine, was a graduate of Bryn Mawr in 1892 before studying at the University of Leipzig for two years on the ’European scholarship’, the highest honour that could be won by a Bryn Mawr student. She returned to Bryn Mawr to receive her Ph.D degree in 1896, where her thesis was The Historical Present in Early Latin, and went on to teach there for a year. In 1897 she became assistant professor of classical philology and the first dean of women at the University of Wisconsin. From September 1900 she held the post of Dean of the Women’s College at Brown. On her marriage to Francis Greenleaf Allinson in 1905 she resigned as dean to become a wife and stepmother, but with her husband’s encouragement continued to write and collaborated with him in writing Greek Lands and Letters (1909). She published Roads to Rome in 1913, and her other books include Children of the Way (1923), Friends with Life (1924), and Credo (1926). Allinson was killed on 16 August 1932 in an accident near her summer home at Hancock Point. 3
