Carla Morris received her doctorate from Gallaudet University in DC, where their linguistics program is devoted to the research and analysis of signed languages (foremost, American Sign Language or ASL).

While a graduate student there, she was on the editorial staff of Gallaudet University Press for 5 years. They have a great in-house style guide for formatting glosses of ASL both as interlinear and in-line texts. Her former supervisor, Ivey Wallace, also contributed to the section on sign language for CMoS.
