Lisa Mantini

Lisa Mantini is an American mathematician.[1]

Education

Mantini earned a Bachelor of Science from the University of Pittsburgh, and a Master of Arts and PhD from Harvard University. All these degrees were in mathematics.[2][3]

Teaching

Mantini taught at Wellesley College prior to 1985. In 1985, she began to teach at Oklahoma State University.[1] Among other awards (see below), in 1995 she received a Deborah and Franklin Haimo Award for Distinguished College or University Teaching of Mathematics,[4] the highest teaching honor bestowed by the Mathematical Association of America.[5][6] In 1998, she gave the undergraduate lecture course, "Representations of Finite Symmetry Groups", for the Mentoring Program for Women in Mathematics at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, New Jersey.[7]

Mathematical Association of America Governor

Mantini served the Oklahoma-Arkansas Section of the Mathematical Association of America as Governor from 2002 to 2005 and from 2014 to 2017. This made her the first person to serve the Oklahoma-Arkansas Section of the Mathematical Association of America as Governor for two terms.[1]
