Heather Wolfe is Curator of Manuscripts at the Folger Shakespeare Library. Author of numerous articles on early modern manuscripts, she has edited The Literary Career and Legacy of Elizabeth Cary (2007), The Trevelyon Miscellany of 1608: A Facsimile Edition of Folger Shakespeare Library MS V.b.232 (2007), and Elizabeth Cary, Lady Falkland: Life and Letters (2001). She is currently thinking about intersections between print and manuscript, the price and quality of writing paper, and how we can recover the way early modern people filed their papers.
