Pamela's early research was based on in-depth interviews with Garrod’s
family, her students and colleagues, and, in order to re-evaluate
Garrod's experiences, Pamela is now collecting comparative oral
histories of women in Cambridge to answer the query, ‘how does your
life history compare with Dorothy Garrod’s’? ‘What has changed’?
