Eliot, Gertrude Stein, Gwendolyn Brooks, Audre Lorde, Sarah Ruhl, Tom Stoppard, and David Lynch.

In 1994, she published her first article on the subject, titled "The Latin Quotations in the Correspondence of Edward Wilmot Blyden," in The Negro Educational Review.

In 2019, she reissued William Sanders Scarborough's First Lessons in Greek: A Facsimile of the 1881 Edition, which is the earliest foreign language textbook by an African American.

It was presented in New York City at the annual meeting of the American Philological Association (renamed as the Society for Classical Studies (SCS).

The panel led to the formation of Eos, a group formed by the SCS in 2017 dedicated to studying the interaction, interpretation, and reception of Graeco-Roman antiquity by people of African descent.

[20] In the early 2000s, Ronnick created a photo installation titled 12 Black Classicists to illustrate the history of African American engagement with classical studies through their portraits.

All who study language and literature in the U.S. today, be it Italian, Swahili, Sanskrit, English, or Arabic, trace the origin of their disciplines to the men and women featured in this photo installation.

"[22] Ronnick's discovery and edition of William Sanders Scarborough's autobiography has been featured in media outlets, including The University of Michigan Record, The Detroit News, Ebony, Washington Post,[23] and the Chronicle of Higher Education.
