I teach Classical Mythology and Ancient Greek in the Classics Program at Northern Illinois University. I also serve as pastor of a small church in southeastern Wisconsin. I received a Ph.D. in Classics from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and an M.Div. from Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary in Evanston, Illinois. Ever since living and excavating in Greece during my college years, I have loved Greek, both ancient and modern. It is a subtle, rich, and often baffling language that leads into luminous depths and sparkling landscapes. My doctoral dissertation was on the role of persuasion in Pindar's Odes. I first began studying veil imagery in Homer in 1987, when I gave a paper on "Leukothea's Veil."
