Life

Borroff was born in New York City in 1923, the daughter of professional musicians Marie Bergerson and (Albert) Ramon Borroff,[3] and sister of composer Edith Borroff. She graduated from the University of Chicago with a BA and MA in 1946,[4] and from Yale University with a Ph.D. in 1956. In 1959, she became the first woman to teach in the English Department at Yale. In 1965, she was the first woman appointed to be an English professor. She retired in 1994.[5]

An Endowed Chair at Yale has been named for her (Marie Borroff Professor of English), presently held by Ardis Butterfield.[6]
