Author · 3 books
Raised in Brooklyn, NY, Lawrence Wittner attended Columbia College and, in 1967, received his Ph.D. in History from Columbia University. Thereafter, he taught at Hampton Institute, at Vassar College, at Japanese universities (under the Fulbright program), and (starting in 1974) at SUNY/Albany, where he rose to the rank of Professor History before his retirement in 2010. A prolific, award-winning writer, he is the author of nine books and has edited or co-edited another four. He has also written hundreds of articles and book reviews for scholarly journals, as well as for popular publications such as the Huffington Post. His latest published books are his memoirs (Working for Peace and Justice) and a satirical novel about corporatization and rebellion at an American public university (What’s Going On at UAardvark?). A long-time activist in social movements, he is currently a national board member of Peace Action (the largest peace organization in the United States) and the executive secretary of the Albany County Central Federation of Labor, AFL-CIO.
