Hale Murch
Hale Murch is a first-year Public History master’s student at Northeastern with a B.A. in history from Bates College. Her past research has focused on women in maritime communities in New England, and she is currently interested in bringing marginalized voices in American history to the forefront. Alongside this primary goal, Murch loves learning about the histories of seafaring, food, fashion, and historical crafts. Outside of school, Murch works for American Ancestors as a digitization assistant: scanning and indexing historical documents to help create searchable online databases.
