Before joining the Department of History at the University of Texas at Arlington in August 2013, she taught at Southeast Missouri State for three years. Prior to that, Dr Beebe was the VH Galbraith Teaching & Research Fellow at St. Hilda's College and a Junior Research Fellow in History at Balliol College, Oxford. She earned her MSt. in Historical Research and her D.Phil. in Medieval (Modern) History whilst a student at Pembroke College, Oxford. Her research interests include medieval pilgrimage, the history of the book, women's history and the cultural history of spirituality. At present, Kathryne is engaged upon a project entitled ""Holy Places and Holy Writ-Travel as Text in the Late Middle Ages"", where she is investigating the connection between spiritual pilgrimage (for travellers who journeyed only in the imagination) and Observant reform in medieval Europe."
