Interview with Cathy Marshall

Published: 01 January 2009 Publication History

Abstract

Cathy Marshall is a Senior Researcher at Microsoft Research, Silicon Valley; she has contributed to both the product and research divisions at Microsoft. Cathy has long worked in the disciplinary interstices of computer science, information science, and the humanities, with occasional collaborations in art and the sciences; one of the original members of the Xerox NoteCards project, she was drawn to the Hypertext Community when it first formed in 1987. She went on to develop Aquanet (with Frank Halasz, Russ Rogers, and Bill Janssen) and VIKI (with Frank Shipman and Jim Coombs). Her experiences with Aquanet led her to coin the term "information farming." In 2003, she served as the Program Chair of the ACM/IEEE Joint Conference on Digital Libraries; she has also served as the Program co-Chair of Hypertext 1996 and JCDL 2006. Cathy won the Hypertext conference's best paper award in 1998 and 1999, and the JCDL best paper award in 1998 and 2008. She has delivered keynotes at WWW, Hypertext, Usenix FAST, CNI, IVICA, ACH-ALLC, and a variety of other CS and LIS venues.
