Jeanne Simonelli is an applied cultural anthropologist and writer who currently teaches at Wake Forest University. Like Sherlock Holmes, she is author of a huge number of infinitely boring but scientifically significant monographs. She has published four books with good titles, Uprising of Hope: Sharing the Zapatista Journey to Autonomous Development (2005); Crossing Between Worlds: The Navajo of Canyon de Chelly (2008; 1997); Too Wet To Plow: The Family Farm in Transition (1992) and Two Boys, A Girl, and Enough! (1986). She has spent summers wearing a Smoky-the-Bear hat as an interpretive Park Ranger at Canyon de Chelly National Monument and doing development projects with a rebel organization in southern Mexico. Her goal in life is to have a novel featured in the Albuquerque Airport bookstore.
Dr. Simonelli is currently a candidate for President of the Society for Applied Anthropology (SFAA) and was 2009 annual meeting Program Chair.
