Historian David Nasaw Joins for 2009
We are pleased to announce the addition of David Nasaw to our roster of panelists for 2009's Historical Fiction and The Search for Truth. Nasaw is the Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr. Professor of History at the Graduate Center of the City University of New York. His most recent publication is Andrew Carnegie, awarded the 2007 New York Historical Society Prize in American History and chosen as a "notable" book of 2006 by the New York Times and a "best" book of the year by the Boston Globe, Los Angeles Times, Business Week, and Library Journal. Nasaw has also been awarded the Bancroft Prize for History, the J. Anthony Lukas Book Prize for Non-Fiction, the Ambassador Book Prize for Biography, and the Sperber Prize for Biography. Professor Nasaw is a historian of the first rank, and his participation in the Seminar adds heft to what promises to be a lively discussion of truth, "truth," and truths among novelists and historians alike.
