Here is a portrait of Betha Whitlow, the driving force behind WashU’s Digital Art History Lab (DAHL).

Once a slide curator, she digitized vast collections and helped make her own role obsolete — paving the way for DAHL, which now trains and empowers students in digital art history. Whitlow is celebrated not only for her innovation but also for her mentorship and advocacy for staff and students alike.

Washington People: Betha Whitlow

As director of the Digital Art History Lab, Betha Whitlow provides work experiences to students that are both fruitful and fairly compensated. She wants the same for her Washington University in St. Louis colleagues. On the Danforth Staff Council, she successfully advocated for parental leave.

He's doubled. He's homered. And overall he's batting 12 for 28 (.429) in those games. Plus, he's reached base more times (18) than the #Cardinals have gotten him out (16).

Saw this at the current exhibit at Wash U's Kemper Art Museum. The whole exhibit is about seeds and the art is lovely, but this really stunned me. The drawers are full of seeds taken from plants growing locally, which you can take.

As #WashUAlum🐻, it's an incredible honor to give GI Grand Round as visiting professor at #WashU. Extra special to speak in the room named after my first clinical research mentor Dr. Ray Clouse, who introduced me to the field when I was a med student & inspired me to become an investigator.

Thank you for the wonderful day. It was amazing to see old friends and to meet the fellows & faculty. It will always be special to be back❤️
