Event Description Eric Foner, DeWitt Clinton Professor of History at Columbia University, is one of this country's most prominent historians. He received his doctoral degree at Columbia under the supervision of Richard Hofstadter. He is one of only two persons to serve as president of the three major professional organizations: the Organization of American Historians, American Historical Association, and Society of American Historians, and one of a handful to have won the Bancroft and Pulitzer Prizes in the same year. Professor Foner's numerous publications have concentrated on the intersections of intellectual, political and social history, and the history of American race relations. His book, The Fiery Trial: Abraham Lincoln and American Slavery, won, among other awards, the Bancroft Prize, Pulitzer Prize for History, and The Lincoln Prize. |
