Manning received a BA (Hons) degree majoring in mathematics, computer science, and linguistics from the Australian National University (1989) and a PhD in linguistics from Stanford (1994), under the guidance of Joan Bresnan.[4][5] He was an assistant professor at Carnegie Mellon University (1994–96) and a lecturer at the University of Sydney (1996–99) before returning to Stanford as an assistant professor. At Stanford, he was promoted to associate professor in 2006 and to full professor in 2012. He was elected an AAAI Fellow in 2010.[6]
Manning's linguistic work includes his dissertation Ergativity: Argument Structure and Grammatical Relations (1996), a monograph Complex Predicates and Information Spreading in LFG (1999),[7] and his work developing Universal Dependencies,[8] from which he is the namesake of Manning's Law. He has also led development of open source computational linguistics software including CoreNLP, Stanza, and GloVe.[9]
Manning's PhD students include Dan Klein, Richard Socher, and Sepandar Kamvar.[5] In 2021, he joined AIX Ventures[10] as an Investment Partner. AIX Ventures is a venture capital fund that invests in artificial intelligence startups.
