Hugh McElroy, B.A., Georgetown University, M.St. University of Oxford, teaches Latin at Sidwell Friends School in Washington, DC.  Hugh fell into teaching after three years of touring and recording in a punk band. He thought it would be a one-year job but, 20 years later, he is still excited about developing his teaching practice. An avid gardener, cook, and traveler, Hugh is happiest eating vegetables harvested from the volcanic soil of Campania after a day scrambling over archaeological sites. He and his husband Kevin live with two cats, Clare and Francis, who were adopted after a trip to Assisi in 2017. Hugh co-led our 2023 Reading Latin + Roman Imperial History program in Rome with Zoe Fox and our 2024 Reading Latin + Roman History program in Rome with Crispin Corrado.
