Associate Professor, Department Chair
Moral Philosophy, Political Philosophy,
Philosophy of Law Biography
Erin Kelly grew up in Rochester, Minnesota, seemingly
destined for medical or law school, and riding horses or
being kicked by them. She earned her undergraduate degree
in philosophy from Stanford University; in further
pursuit of philosophy, she then went to Columbia University
for graduate study before moving to Harvard University,
where she earned her PhD. Her research interests are in moral
and political philosophy and the philosophy of law, with a
focus on questions about justice, the nature of moral reasons,
moral responsibility and desert, and theories of punishment.
She has a non-academic interest in music, film, the
outdoors, and two young children.
