After that she became head of the mathematics department of Potomac State College in Keyser, West Virginia. In 1927 to 1929, she was an assistant, in 1929 to 1930 a fellow, at the University of Illinois. In 1930, she obtained her Ph.D. in mathematics with a thesis in algebraic geometry,[2][3] advised by A. B. Coble.[4] She was one of the first American women who obtained a mathematics Ph.D. degree.[5] CareerThereafter, she worked as a professor in the American College for Girls, the university section of Robert College, in Istanbul, Turkey.[5] She attended the 1932 International Congress of Mathematicians in Zürich as an official delegate.[6] In 1934, she returned to the United States to teach at the high school associated with the University of Chicago. For the rest of her career, she served at Kent State University in Ohio, as an appointed instructor since 1935, an assistant professor since 1936, an associate professor since 1942, and a professor since 1946, until she retired in 1972, as emeritus professor.[5] References1. ^Grinnell graduates list, class of 1923 {{authoritycontrol}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Harshbarger, Frances}}2. ^{{cite thesis | type=Ph.D. thesis | url= | author=Frances Harshbarger | title=The Geometric Configuration Defined by a Special Algebraic Relation of Genus Four | institution=University of Illinois | year=1930 }} 3. ^{{cite journal | url=http://www.ams.org/journals/tran/1931-033-02/S0002-9947-1931-1501606-X | author=Frances Harshbarger | title=The Geometric Configuration Defined by a Special Algebraic Relation of Genus Four | journal=Transactions of the American Mathematical Society | volume=33 | number=2 | pages=557—578 | date=Apr 1931 }} 4. ^{{mathGenealogy|4145}} 5. ^1 2 3 4 {{cite book | url=https://books.google.de/books?id=IRbOAwAAQBAJ | isbn=978-0-8218-4376-5 | first1 = Judy | last1 = Green | author1-link = Judy Green (mathematician) | first2 = Jeanne | last2 = LaDuke | author2-link = Jeanne LaDuke | title=Pioneering Women in American Mathematics — The Pre-1940 PhD's | location= | publisher=American Mathematical Society, The London Mathematical Society | series=History of Mathematics | volume=34 | edition=1st | date=2009 }} Biography on pp. 244 of the [https://www.ams.org/bookpages/hmath-34-PioneeringWomen.pdf Supplementary Material] at [https://www.ams.org/publications/authors/books/postpub/hmath-34 AMS] 6. ^Vol.1 of the Congress Proceedings, p. 10, 25 (= p. 18, 33 in the Pdf file) 10 : 20th-century American mathematicians|1902 births|1987 deaths|American women mathematicians|West Virginia University alumni|West Virginia University faculty|University of Illinois alumni|Kent State University faculty|People from Cherokee County, Iowa|Mathematicians from Iowa |
