Christopher Brick is Director and Editor of The Eleanor Roosevelt Papers, a research center that collects, annotates, and publishes selected volumes of Eleanor Roosevelt’s political correspondence from 1945-1962. He holds a B.A. in History and International Affairs from The George Washington University, and an M.A. in History from Brown University, where he is currently completing his doctoral dissertation. Entitled “The Common Man’s Republic: A Cultural History of Anti-Elitism in the United States, 1930-1950,” his dissertation explores the history of class-based anti-elitism in mid-twentieth-century America, and documents the process that gradually shifted its emphasis away from social and economic elites and toward cultural and intellectual ones. His publications include Volumes 1 and 2 of The Eleanor Roosevelt Papers: The Human Rights Years, both of which he co-edited, as senior editorial fellow and assistant editor respectively. Since 2009, he has served as a representative of the Northeast Region on the Membership Committee of the Organization of American Historians.
