About me
Dr. Kristine Larsen has been an astronomy professor at Central Connecticut State University since 1989. In addition to her scholarly work on Tolkien's use of astronomy in crafting Middle-earth (published in Mallorn, Tolkien Studies, Journal of Tolkien Research, Amon Hen, and beyond), she takes great pleasure in bringing the joy of the night sky to kids of ages 2 to 102 through outreach events.
