ROHA Recognizes Contributions to History

Help celebrate figures who have made tremendous contributions to the field of oral history. This event will specifically recognize this year's recipient of the Stephen E. Ambrose Oral History Award, Rutgers Board of Governors Distinguished Professor of History and Professor of Women's and Gender Studies Deborah Gray White, for pioneering and championing the study of African-American history and women's history in academia. We will also honor Donald A. Ritchie, Historian Emeritus of the U.S. Senate, with the inaugural Rutgers Oral History Archives Legacy Award, which commemorates his contributions to the field of oral history and the intellectual life of oral history practice at Rutgers. This event will be open to the public and will include brunch.
