She has published scholarly editions of Romantic Women Writers Reviewed, 1788–1792 (9 vols) and of three Silver Fork novels; edited Teaching Bibliography, Book History, and Textual Criticism; and co‐edited Women Writers and the Artifacts of Celebrity, and Playing Games in Nineteenth-Century Britain and America. She serves as series co‐editor for SUNY Press’s History of Books, Publishing, and the Book Trades. As Rachael Miles, she writes award‐winning historical romance. Catherine S. Blackwell researches long-nineteenth-century transatlantic literature, material culture, and legal artifacts, and works as an editorial coordinator for SUNY Press. She has published a scholarly edition of the Anna Seward–Joseph Weston debate from The Gentleman’s Magazine and on British and American women writers, including Louisa May Alcott. In addition to editing the Gentleman’s Magazine chapters in Romantic Women Writers Reviewed, she is associate editor of the digital Victorian Women Writers Reviewed project and co-editor of the 2021 Playing Games in Nineteenth-Century Britain and America. A former paralegal, she is currently researching criminal-conversation lawsuits and related publications. E. Leigh Bonds, associate professor and digital humanities librarian at The Ohio State University, holds a PhD with specialization in nineteenth-century British literature and book history. In addition to co-editing this volume, she edited the Town and Country Magazine chapters in Romantic Women Writers Reviewed, published articles on Mary Robinson’s censure of gaming and periodical puffing of Walsingham, and co-curated exhibitions of Romantic works. Her role at Ohio State involves consultations, collaborations, and instruction to support digital humanities approaches in research and teaching, and leading the campus digital humanities community. Her current research projects focus on Robinson’s literary celebrity, pseudonymous signatures, and publishing history.
