Education
Gantz received his Bachelor of Arts from Haverford College in 1967, and his Ph.D. in Classics from Princeton University in 1970.[2]
Career
From 1970, Gantz was a long-time professor of Classics at the University of Georgia, where he directed its "Studies Abroad in Rome" program from 1985 to 2003.[3]
In 1993, he published his book Early Greek Myth: A Guide to Literary and Artistic Sources, which puts particular emphasis on earlier sources of the Archaic period.[4] The book was received positively,[5] and, according to classicist Robin Hard, "can be recommended unreservedly as a comprehensive guide to the early mythical tradition".[6]
Death
Gantz died in Athens, Georgia, on 20 January 2004, aged 58.[7]
