Beverly Army Williams teaches composition and upper-level writing courses.  Her themed composition courses draw on her interests in oral history and place. Beverly’s creative work and research, a novel and a collection of oral histories, both draw on the Connecticut Tobacco Valley’s shade tobacco farms and workers.
