Dr. Wilhelmina Jashemski was a professor at The University of Maryland from 1946 to 1980 and was the first non-Italian to excavate at the site of Pompeii. Her specialty was first in Roman law, but after visiting Pompeii in the 1950’s, her focus shifted to this ancient city and the flora that once inhabited it. She helped to establish the academic field of garden archaeology, writing several books on the subject. Dr. Wilhelmina Jashemski was named woman of the year by the University of Maryland's President's Commision on Women's Issues in 1980. She donated several of her books to the Maryland Room, as well as to some of the other libraries on campus.
