Nope, sorry. Bynum holds a chair in History at Columbia. I think I know
who you're talking about though- the woman's first name is Barbara but
for the life of me I can't remember her last name. I also saw her at a
conference, 5 or 6 years ago, when she was working on the subject of
marital abductions and the Canon Law regarding them (abductions for the
purpose of creating a marriage, that is). Cool material.
