John Hunt retired from the University of
Montana in 2020 after teaching literature classes for more than
three decades. He designed the site and for nearly fifteen years
he has been happily diving into the luminous obscurities of
Joyce's text. Having written more than 1,000 notes, he hopes to
live long enough to complete what he knows is an endless task.
He lives in Missoula.
These five individuals have made
substantial and ongoing contributions to the Joyce Project:
Ole Bønnerup, proofreader and
grammarian extraordinaire, taught English and French in a Danish
high school for 35 years and now fills the blessed void of
retirement by learning new languages and tackling great works of
literature like Ulysses. He lives in Aarhus.
Alex Hunt assisted with coding and design of the site's
first iteration, and then developed version 2.0. He is now
working on an ambitious third construct that will bring the
desktop and mobile sites together. He lives in Seattle.
Senan Molony, an alum of Joyce's Belvedere College who
was only suspended once, is an award-winning journalist who has
published ten books, including The Phoenix Park Murders
and Helen of Joyce. He has consulted on many notes,
written or co-written several more, and supplied many images for
the site. He lives in Dublin and reports that, yes, it is quite
superb to be a natural-born denizen of the immortalized city.
Vincent Altman O’Connor cultivated the
pluterperfect imperturbability of Ireland's Department of
Agriculture for many years while playing blues and jazz piano on
the side. He has consulted on many details of Hiberno-Hebraic
coexistence, Fenian nationalism, Dublin psychotopography, and
music. He lives in Dublin.
Vincent Van Wyk, who grew up in South Africa
and received his B.A. in Irish history and politics from Ulster
University, has recommended many videos relevant to Ulysses
and contributed valuable insights on Irish culture, the second
Boer War, material living conditions, and natural science. He
lives in Derry.
This second alphabetical list, some of whose bios
have not kept up with the passage of time, acknowledges
briefer and more limited contributions:
Marco Fulvio Barozzi is a scientific
and literary blogger who is in love with Joyce and with Dublin,
where he spent his honeymoon. Before retiring he supported
himself by teaching mathematics. He has contributed a note on
Almidano Artifoni. He lives in Milan.
Patrick Boe is a software engineer living in
Philadelphia, where he parents a child, cooks, and rides around
on a big green touring bike. He designed the mobile conversion
for the site.
Cathal Coleman teaches politics and history at
universities in Ireland and the UK and enjoys bringing those
interests to the study of Joyce. In recent years he has done
research on John Wyse Power (John Wyse Nolan) and Michael Cusack
(the Citizen). He lives in Dublin.
Gareth Collins works in insurance for his sins.
He has been hooked on Joyce's books, and Dublin, for as long as
he can remember, and takes photographs of the city to document
the continuity of past and present. He lives in Belfast.
Sean Collins completed his M.A. in English
Literature at the University of Montana and moved on to do
doctoral work at the University of Utah. He collaborated on a
note on Montaigne's cat.
Andy Han graduated from a Cincinnati high school in 2019.
He enjoys reading everything he can and also riding his bike,
though not at the same time. He developed a new way of
implementing variable pagination and wrote a note on shrewridden
husbands.
Bruce Hardy, the lead author of a note on the death of
Rudy Bloom, is a retired pediatric cardiologist who has loved Ulysses
for most of his adult life. In recent years he has been
teaching classes in Joyce's works at the University of Montana.
He lives in Missoula.
Morgan Lawrence is a wildland
firefighting barista with a taste for world travel. She
completed her B.A. in English Literature and Irish Studies at
the University of Montana and contributed two notes.
Barb Nelson completed her M.A. in English Literature at
the University of Montana. She formatted the online text of Ulysses
and compiled the explanatory list of People in the Novel
found under "Resources." She lives in Kalispell.
Doug Pope is an artist and educator who received an M.A.
in art history from Concordia University and went on to work in
the fields of publishing, film, and advertising. He authored
notes on advertising and Stephen's telegram and collaborated on
two other notes. He lives in Nova Scotia,
Russell Raphael is the author of An
Understanding of Ulysses and The Fine Trousers of
Almidano Artifoni, a short tongue-in-cheek collection of
poems commenting on Wandering Rocks. He is the founder
of North London Ulysses, which meets weekly in pubs to read and
discuss Ulysses and Finnegans Wake. He
collaborated on a note on the Divine Comedy.
Sahas Subramanian, a software engineer from India,
created the downloadable ebook, starting with the Gutenberg epub
file and incorporating annotations, textual changes, and the
index of notes from the Joyce Project. He lives in Berlin.
Tom Seiler earned his M.A. in English Literature at the
University of Montana. He developed version 1.0 of the site,
including a way of encoding variable pagination to accommodate
different print editions of the novel.
Josh Wagner is a novelist, playwright, and
rabble-rouser who managed to complete his B.A. in Creative
Writing and Literature at the University of Montana between
extensive journeys around the globe. He authored two notes.

out to sharp-eyed correspondents for snagging the few
wily typos that always manage to slither through the nets
thrown at them.
