Timeline

1700

Hall is a feminist historian, known for her work on gender, class, race and empire between 1700 and 1900.

1946

Catherine Hall (born 1946) is a British academic.

She is Emerita Professor of Modern British Social and Cultural History at University College London and chair of its digital scholarship project, the Centre for the Study of the Legacies of British Slavery.

Catherine Barrett (later Hall) was born in 1946 in Kettering, Northamptonshire.

Her father, John Barrett, was a Baptist minister, while her mother, Gladys, came from a family of millers.

Her parents met at Oxford University, where Gladys was studying history.

When Catherine was three years old, the family moved to Leeds, Yorkshire, and she grew up there in a non-conformist household; both parents were "radical Labour".

She went to grammar school, where she says she had an excellent education.

She then attended the University of Sussex at Falmer, but was living between Brighton and London, having met her future husband, Stuart Hall, who lived in London.

She found herself out of place among the "stylish, metropolitan types" and bewildered by the emphasis on the multidisciplinary syllabus at Sussex.

She moved to the University of Birmingham, where Stuart had moved to set up the Centre for Cultural Studies, and she completed a traditional history degree, developing an interest in medieval history.

1960

In the early 1960s, she participated in a march for Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament.

Hall met her future husband, cultural theorist and activist Stuart Hall, on a Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament march in the early 1960s, and the two would go on to marry in 1964.

The couple had a daughter, Becky, and son, Jess, and the family lived in Birmingham.

Stuart was Jamaican, and with mixed-race children, Catherine was aware of the legacy of British colonialism before commencing her academic work on the topic.

1968

Hall was involved in student politics and activism in Birmingham around 1968, but then had a baby, which changed her life.

1970

1980

She was employed as a "gender historian" at the Northeast London Polytechnic (now the University of East London) in the late 1980s, which involved looking at history from a feminist perspective, creating a new discipline subsequently known as feminist history.

During this time, the discipline of postcolonialism developed, and she became interested in this topic.

1981

She was a member of the Feminist Review collective between 1981 and 1997.

1987

She got involved in the women's movement, became a feminist historian, and co-wrote Family Fortunes with Leonore Davidoff in 1987.

1998

She was appointed Professor of Modern British Social and Cultural History University College London (UCL) in 1998, and was Principal Investigator of the "Legacies of British Slave Ownership" and "Structure and Significance of British-Caribbean Slave Ownership, 1763–1833" research projects.

2009

, she is Emerita Professor of Modern British Social and Cultural History at UCL and chair of its digital scholarship project, the Centre for the Study of the Legacies of British Slavery, on which she has worked since 2009.

2016

She retired from her professorship on 31 July 2016.

In May 2016, Hall donated 3,000 books from his library to Housmans bookshop.
