Marilyn Arnold is an emeritus professor of English at Brigham Young University. Arnold was born November 26, 1935 in Salt Lake City, Utah to Henry Lynn and Rhoda Jane Arnold. She obtained her B.S. and M.S. degrees from Brigham Young University (BYU) in 1957 and 1958 and she taught at BYU from 1958-1961. In 1968, Arnold obtained a Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Arnold became Assistant Dean of Women at the University of Wisconsin-Madison from 1962-1964 and then Assistant Director of Student Financial Aid at the University of Wisconsin-Madison from 1964-1965.
