Early life and education edit

Born in 1969,[1] Baxter completed his undergraduate degree in modern history at Wadham College, Oxford,[2] graduating in 1991 with a double first.[3] From 1991 to 1997, he worked in the private sector, firstly for a strategic management consultancy firm and then an investment bank in London, before returning to Oxford to complete a doctorate at Christ Church between 1997 and 2001.[3] His DPhil was awarded in 2002 for his thesis "The Leofwinesons: power, property and patronage in the early English kingdom", which was supervised by C. P. Wormald.[1]

Academic career edit

Between 2001 and 2004, Baxter was a junior research fellow at Magdalen College, Oxford.[3] From 2004 to 2014, he taught medieval history at King's College, London, firstly as a lecturer and from 2009 as a reader in medieval history.[3] In 2014, he was elected Barron Fellow and Tutor in Medieval History at St Peter's College, Oxford,[2] and Clarendon Associate Professor of Medieval History in the University of Oxford's Department of History.[4][5] In 2020, he was awarded the title of Professor of Medieval History by the University of Oxford.[6]

Baxter was a co-director for the second phase of the AHRC-funded Prosopography of Anglo-Saxon England (PASE) project, alongside Dame Janet Nelson, Simon Keynes, Harold Short and John Bradley;[2][7] this part of the database, which traced all English persons appearing in documentary sources from 1042 to c. 1100, was published online in 2009.[8] Baxter was also a co-investigator of the AHRC-funded Exon Domesday research project (alongside Julia Crick and Peter A. Stokes);[2][9] this took place from 2015 to 2018 and resulted in the publication of a new online text of the book and much other research into its content and compilation.[10]
