On November 28th, Allison Glazebrook delivered the Dr. Sally L.D. Katary Memorial Lecture in the Northrop Frye Center at Victoria University in the University of Toronto. Her lecture was titled, “Slavery and the Athenian Sex Trade.”

The late Dr. Sally L. D Katary taught Ancient Studies and Classics at Thorneloe University for 30 years until her sudden passing on August 6, 2016. A world-renowned Egyptologist with a Ph.D. from the University of Toronto, Dr. Katary was filmed by National Geographic on the subject of ancient Egypt and was well-known for courses on Greek mythology women in the ancient world; her students deeply appreciated her gift for storytelling. First established at Thorneloe University in her memory in 2017, The Dr. Sally L. D. Katary Memorial Lecture Series moved in 2024 to the Northrop Frye Centre at Victoria University.
