Lauren Hackworth Petersen is Assistant Professor of Art History at the University of Delaware. A scholar of Roman art and architecture, she has published in Arethusa and The Art Bulletin, has received fellowships from the American Academy in Rome, the National Endowment for the Humanities, and the Getty Foundation.

'Hackworth Petersen's book is a welcome fresh look at freedmen, their status and how they projected themselves in Roman society. It is also a welcome deconstruction of a stereotype created by modern scholarship, which affects interpretations of many kinds of evidence.' Arctos
