A key member of the ground-breaking Achaemenid History Workshop (1981-90), alongside Heleen Sancisi-Weerdenburg, Margaret Root, and many others, she demonstrated the value of studying the Persian empire from within and below, and the interpretative limitations of relying solely on peripheral Classical sources.)
