A research focus on 20th century women’s history in the Gulf South is preferred though not required.

The fellow will do his or her academic research, present his or her work at a public lecture, and join the interdisciplinary intellectual community at the Newcomb College Institute and Tulane University. We also ask the fellow to work closely with one to two undergraduate research assistants.
