Lin Huff-Corzine is Professor Emerita in Sociology at the University of Central Florida. She is active in the American Society of Criminology where she serves on the Board for the Division of Historical Criminology. She is also a founding member of the Homicide Research Working Group, which recently honored her and colleagues Jay Corzine and John Jarvis with an award that will be given annually in our names for outstanding research related to homicide. Her publications on homicide, domestic violence, and human trafficking appear in a variety of criminology and criminal justice journals. Directly related to this book is a piece with Dr. Kayla Toohy about Tarnowsky's life and scholarship that appeared in the Journal of Criminal Justice. 

Kayla Toohy is an Assistant Professor in the Criminology and Criminal Justice Department at the University of Tampa. Her research areas primarily focus on studies of lethal violence, taking into consideration macro-level economic and social factors and the geographic distribution of individual crimes using Geographic Information Systems (GIS). Additionally, she has conducted research in the areas of intimate partner violence, family mass murder, historical contributions to criminological literature, and environmental predictors of crime. Her recent publications appear in journals such as the Journal of Criminal Justice, Violence Against Women, the Journal of Mass Violence Research, Security Journal, and Victims & Offenders. Publications that reference information related to Pauline Tarnowsky and her historical contributions to the discipline of criminology include “The life and scholarship of Pauline Tarnowsky: Criminology’s mother,” with Dr. Lin Huff-Corzine, in the Journal of Criminal Justice. The work she has conducted translating Pauline Tarnowsky’s Les Femmes Homicides brought together her two loves of French literature and criminology.
