Connect with outstanding speakers on American history. Created in 1981 by OAH president Gerda Lerner, the OAH Distinguished Lectureship Program now features more than three hundred U.S. historians.

Each speaker has agreed to give one lecture on OAH’s behalf during the 2008-2009 academic year, designating the lecture fee in full as a donation to OAH. Lecture fees start at $1,000. Host institutions pay the lecture fee to OAH as well as the speakers’ travel and lodging expenses.

To receive more information or to arrange a lecture, please contact the lectureship program coordinator, ph. 812-855-7311, OAH, P.O. Box 5457, Bloomington, IN 47407- 5457. Make arrangements early for the best chance at obtaining the speaker of your choice.
