The OAH Distinguished Lectureship Program is a great way to identify and invite an outstanding historian to speak at your institution. Created in 1981 by OAH president Gerda Lerner, the program now features 300 speakers, including 39 new appointees, who have made major contributions to the many fields of U.S. history.

Each speaker has agreed to give one lecture on behalf of OAH during the 2006-2007 academic year, designating the lecture fee in full to OAH as a donation. Lecture fees start at $1,000. Host institutions pay the lecture fee directly to OAH, in addition to the speaker's travel and lodging expenses.

In some cases, lecturers may be willing to speak on topics other than those listed here. The earlier the arrangements are made the better your chance of obtaining the speaker of your choice.

For more information or to arrange a lecture, please contact our lectureship coordinator, or telephone (812) 855-7311, OAH, P.O. Box 5457, Bloomington, IN 47408-5457.
