Katherine Haskins

After thirty years as a librarian specializing in art information management (including a stint as Director of the Arts Libraries at Yale), I joined the Corporate and Foundation Relations department of Yales Office of Development as a writer and editor. During my twelve years in the Development Office, I raised funds and prepared grant proposals and leadership correspondence in support of the arts, humanities, and libraries at Yale. I retired from Yales Office of Development in 2023. I came to Yale in 2001 from the University of Chicago, where I worked for seventeen years in the library system as a senior manager, and where I earned my PhD in the history of art. I live in New Haven and remain actively engaged with the university, including as a member of the Yale University Library Council.
Ive been a Davenport fellow for over twenty years.
