Education and career

MacCluer is the daughter of George M. Richards, a research chemist and attorney. She is married to mathematician Thomas Kriete. [3] She graduated from Michigan State University in 1975 and earned her Ph.D. there in 1983. [1] Her dissertation, Holomorphic Self-Maps of the Unit Ball: Iteration and Composition Operators, was supervised by Joel Shapiro. [4]

She worked at the University of Virginia from 1983 to 1986, at the University of South Carolina from 1986 to 1987 and at the University of Richmond from 1987 to 1995. She returned to the University of Virginia in 1995. [1]
