She received her education at Bryn Mawr College, BA (1951) magna cum laude, MA, PhD (1959) where she studied with Rhys Carpenter and wrote her thesis was on the Onesimos (vase painter). At Bryn Mawr College classmates and colleagues include Brunilde Sismondo Ridgway and Machteld Mellink.

Expertise

Ann Ashmead is a classical Greek vase painting expert, the leading authority on depictions of cats, particularly the Cheetah, on 5th Century Red-Figured Greek Vases.[9] Ashmead has also introduced technical sections in her catalogues, including references to kiln stacking and under-painting, before it became a common practice in writing on Greek Vases.
