Miriam Southwell Farley (January 13, 1907 – March 4, 1975) was an American political scientist on the staff of the Institute of Pacific Relations. She was editor of Far Eastern Survey in the 1940s. From 1956 through the 1960s, she was managing editor at Indiana University Press.




Early life and education


Farley was born in Pennsylvania and raised in Wilkes-Barre and Susquehanna, the daughter of Joseph Waldron Farley and June Wynona Southwell Farley. Her father died in 1915. Her grandfather Harvey N. Farley served a term in the Pennsylvania legislature. She graduated from Wyoming Seminary in 1923, where she excelled in Latin, and from Mount Holyoke College in 1927. She was a member of Phi Beta Kappa. She pursued further studies in international relations with Parker Moon at Columbia University.




Career


Farley was a research associate at the Institute of Pacific Relations beginning in 1933. She was editor of Far Eastern Survey in the 1940s. Her conclusions about Japan's wartime economic status were regularly summarized and reported in newspapers.
In 1940, she spoke at an alumnae conference at Mount Holyoke College. In 1945, she spoke on a panel of Far East experts at Wellesley College. After World War II, she worked in the Occupation government in Japan. She testified before a Senate subcommittee in 1952, and "vigorously denied" any pro-Communist bias in her editorial work.
Farley moved to Indiana in the 1950s. She started as a production editor at Indiana University Press in 1956. In 1967 she spoke about Chinese history at a local League of Women Voters meeting in Indiana.
