Biography

Miss Bauer joined Nightingale in fall 1979 to teach math, later adding English classes as well. She took a sabbatical in 1994-95 to write her Ph.D. thesis in medieval literature at NYU, returning to Nightingale through the 1997-98 school year. Miss Bauer is an honorary alumna of the school due to her 10+ years of teaching at Nightingale.

Miss Bauer (also known as Ms. Bauer) had several roles in addition to teaching, including Junior class advisor, head of the math department, President of the Nightingale Chapter of the Cum Laude Society, and head of a committee to examine and expand the school's Independent Study Program (ISPs).

Ms. Bauer was married and had a daughter in 1997. She was educated at Yale University and NYU.
