Sarah L. Surface-Evans joined the Michigan State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) as Senior Archaeologist in 2022 after a decade as a professor of Anthropology at Central Michigan University. Sarah specializes in community-based archaeological practice in the Great Lakes region. Her research and publications have investigated a variety of topics, including material expressions of health and wellbeing, the structure of space as an expression of power in settler-colonial landscapes, and the role of memory, nostalgia, and haunting in contested colonial histories. Her recent publications include “Exploring Well-Being at Three Great Lakes Lighthouses” in the International Journal of Historical Archaeology.
