Lori Ginzberg is a professor of History and Women’s, Gender and Sexuality Studies at Penn State University. She is a historian of nineteenth-century American women with a particular interest in the intersections between intellectual and social history. Her research has focused on the ways that ideologies about gender obscure the material and ideological realities of class, how women of different groups express political identities, and the ways that commonsense notions of American life shape, contain, and control radical ideas. She has written several books, including Elizabeth Cady Stanton: An American Life (Farrar, Straus, Giroux, 2009) and Untidy Origins: A Story of Woman’s Rights in Antebellum New York (UNC Press, 2005). As the nation commemorated the centennial of the 19th amendment to the Constitution in 2020, she spoke throughout the country and on podcasts and radio shows about Stanton, the foremost intellectual-activist of her generation, as well as about the conflicts and complexities involved in commemoration itself. She has always thought librarians are heroes, but is newly grateful for their support throughout the pandemic — and so is delighted to share her work with this group.
