Professor Anne Curry is Emeritus Professor of Medieval History at the University of Southampton. Her special interest is the Hundred Years War, especially the battle of Agincourt, English armies and Joan of Arc.

Anne was heavily involved in the commemorations of the 600th anniversary of Agincourt, including as chair of Trustees of the Agincourt 600 charity, and also in the creation of a new museum at Azincourt, which opened in September 2019.

Anne has served as a Vice-President of the Royal Historical Society, President of the Historical Association, Trustee of the Royal Armouries, Master of the Worshipful Company of Fletchers (fletchers.org.uk), and Chair of The Battlefields Trust (battlefieldstrust.com).
