Amanda Mushal specializes in the history of the Old South. She earned her B.A. from the College of William and Mary and her M.A. from the University of Virginia, where she is currently completing her Ph.D. Her research examines the role of honor in the Old South as the region became increasingly integrated into national networks of trade and commerce and developed a distinctive sectional identity.

Professor Mushal has worked for Colonial Williamsburg and has taught at the University of Virginia and the College of William and Mary. She is a contributor to The Southern Middle Class in the Nineteenth Century, a collection of essays edited by Jonathan Wells and Jennifer Green and forthcoming from Louisiana State University Press. She has worked on several projects for the Virginia Center for Digital History, including the digitization of the annual bibliography of slavery and slaving published as a supplement to the journal of Slavery and Abolition. She is also interested in architectural history and has done fieldwork in Virginia and the Caribbean.
