Heather Ingman

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Heather Elizabeth Ingman (born 26 December 1953) is a British[1] academic, noted for her work on Irish and British women's writing, the Irish short story, gender studies and modernism.[2] Also a novelist and journalist, Ingman has worked in Ireland and the UK, especially at Trinity College Dublin, where she is an Adjunct Professor of English[3] and Research Fellow in Gender Studies.[4]

Early life and education

Ingman was born and brought up in Stockton-on-Tees, a market town in County Durham in the north of England,[5] one of two daughters of David and Elizabeth Ingman (née Joan Elizabeth Walker, married 1951).[6] Her father was executive[7] chairman of the British Waterways Board from 1987 to 1993;[6] he led the drive for new legislation to allow the Board to extend its activities, opened one of the Board's first major commercial developments, at Limehouse,[8] and was awarded a CBE in 1993.[6] His father, Charles, was director of one of the main local enterprises, Power Gas Group (now part of Johnson Matthey).[9]

Ingman attended Teesside High School, completing school in 1972, then studied at Bedford College of the University of London, graduating in 1977 with a BA in French and English from the university. In 1980 she was awarded a PhD in French Renaissance poetry and drama by the same university.[10]

Career

Academic

Ingman first taught in the School of French at Trinity College Dublin (TCD) from the early 1980s for ten years.[10] She moved back to the UK for her second PhD, and took up a post at the University of Hull, as Lecturer in English, specialising in Women's Studies, for eight years.[11] She secured her PhD from Loughborough University, on women's inter-war fiction, in 1996.[4]

She returned, after about ten years,[12] to Dublin, to work at the Department of English at Trinity College, in time becoming an Adjunct Professor. She later also took up a post at the Centre for Women's Studies within TCD; she is currently a Visiting Research Fellow at what is now the Centre for Gender and Womens Studies.[4] Ingman also speaks regularly at conferences, has been interviewed on radio, and supervises and has acted as external examiner for PhD candidates in at least five universities in the UK, Ireland and the USA.[10]

Ingman is also an Honorary Research Fellow of the Research Institute of Irish and Scottish Studies at the University of Aberdeen.[13]

After an early monograph, Ingman published academic papers regularly over more than fifteen years, and wrote, edited or co-edited eight academic texts from 1998 to 2018, several of which are major topic surveys, widely held in academic libraries.

Literary

Ingman published her first novel in 1987, then returned to the form in 1994, publishing six books in under five years. After a gap of nearly 20 years, she published a new novel in 2017.

Journalism

Ingman wrote a number of "Englishwoman's Diary"[28] columns for the Irish Times in the early 2000s,[29] and then and later wrote literary articles and reviews for the paper.

Personal life

Ingman is married to Ferdinand von Prondzynski, second President of Dublin City University[30] and then Principal of Robert Gordon University. She has lived in the UK, Ireland, France and Ecuador.[31] While working at the Universities of Hull and York, part-time, she lived in Yorkshire,[31] then between Dublin (where a house on the DCU campus was part of von Prondzynski's contract) and Westmeath (the family lived partly at, and later took over, Knockdrin Castle outside Mullingar, Co. Westmeath,[1] from von Prondzynski's family). Knockdrin Castle and its estate were placed on the market in 2017. As of 2018, Ingman lives and works between Dublin and Aberdeen.[citation needed]

Ingman and von Prondzynski have two sons,[30] the elder (born 1989) adopted from Educador,[1] the younger born in 1991 in the United Kingdom, educated at the University of Buckingham and now working as a copywriter for the Conservative Party.
