  • Notes 
    • Source: Phillips Exeter Academy, New Hampshire (2013) — Mary Behnke, commonly known as “Lee”, received her B.A. from Smith College. She has Master’s degrees from Tufts University and Harvard University. Having spent twelve years at the University of Chicago where she was Director of the Undergraduate Latin Program and a coordinator of the Great Books Humanities sequence, she returned to the East Coast in 2009. Her academic interests include Latin poetry, the Augustan Age and the Classical Tradition in Literature. She has led student trips to Italy, Greece and Spain and she has taught in Rome, Athens and Barcelona on the Civilization programs run by the University of Chicago. The Classical Association of Massachusetts named her Teacher of the Year and upon her departure from the University of Chicago, the Mary Lee Behnke prize was established for excellence in teaching and mentoring. Mrs. Behnke enjoys theater, opera, cooking and cats. She has been found occasionally sewing patches on pirate costumes at the Exeter theater department.
