Lisa Singleton received a Murphy Institute Center for Ethics and Public Affairs Graduate Fellowship for her Ph.D. dissertation in Latin American history at Tulane University, “Welfare Finance in Mexico, 1820-1890,” in 2008. She is a specialist in social policy and resides in New York City.
Established in memory of Charles H. Murphy, Sr. (1870-1954), and inspired by the vision of Charles H. Murphy, Jr. (1920-2002), The Murphy Institute exists to help Tulane faculty and students understand economic, moral, and political problems we all face and think about. More important, it exists to help us understand how these problems have come to be so closely interconnected.
