Annie Zaenen

Annie Zaenen is a Principal Scientist at PARC and a Linguistics consulting Professor at Stanford University. She obtained her Ph.D. at Harvard on "Extraction Rules in Icelandic" in 1980. She was the manager of the Natural Language group of the Xerox Research Centre Europe in Grenoble and has worked extensively on the syntax of Germanic languages and on the development of Lexical Functional Grammar (LFG), with excursions into lexical semantics. Her contributions to the theory of Lexical Functional Grammar are in the development of notions such as long-distance dependencies, functional uncertainty and the difference between subsumption and equality.

Currently she works on coreference and anaphora resolution, information structure and the analysis of temporal expressions for reasoning. She is also the main editor of the online journal Linguistic Issues in Language Technology (LiLT).
