 Eileen Hunt is a professor of political science and a political theorist whose scholarly interests cover modern political thought, feminism, the family, rights, ethics of technology, and philosophy and literature, from feminist, comparative, and international perspectives.

 She has taught at Notre Dame since 2001. Her books include *Family Feuds: Wollstonecraft, Burke, and Rousseau on the Transformation of the Family* (SUNY, 2006), *Wollstonecraft, Mill, and Women's Human Rights* (Yale, 2016), *Mary Shelley and the Rights of the Child: Political Philosophy in "Frankenstein"* (Penn Press, 2017), and *Artificial Life After Frankenstein* (Penn Press, 2020).

 She is most recently the editor of the two-volume reference set *Portraits of Wollstonecraft* (with 31 annotated illustrations, for Bloomsbury Philosophy, 2021; one-volume revised paperback and digital edition, Fall 2023), which traces Wollstonecraft's global, cross-cultural reception in art, philosophy, literature, and politics from 1785 to 2020.

 Forthcoming is the concluding volume in her trilogy on Mary Shelley and political philosophy, *The First Last Man: Mary Shelley and the Post-Apocalyptic Imagination* (Penn Press, 2024). She is currently working on a book called *The Women Who Made Orwell* as well as several editions of the works of Mary Shelley and Mary Wollstonecraft.
