Question
I am chair of anthropology at Widener University near Philadelphia.  I am looking for a practicing business anthropologist in the tristate area-SE PA, northern Delaware, southern NJ for a senior anth major to work with for her senior research.  Do you know of any?

Answer
Greetings Dr. Rothman,

We are far and few between. I know of no one in the tristate area working as a Business Anthropologist. There is a person in NYC, Paco Underhill who owns a business as a retail anthropologist and there is a prof. down in VA that is teaching in a business college down there. I'd have  to get you his details.

I grew up in Vineland NJ but now live in Houston TX.
