Schonberger also is a faculty emerita member with the Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Program. “Dr. Ann Schonberger has spent her career working tirelessly to advance the cause of women and girls in Maine. Both in her work at the University of Maine and in her three-plus decades of volunteerism at Spruce Run, Maine’s first domestic violence organization, Ann has been an incubator of feminist leadership for our state,” read the biography used to introduce Schonberger during the induction ceremony. The Hall of Fame is dedicated to women whose achievements have had a statewide impact and significantly improved the lives of women in Maine, the article states.
