Presentation of the Inagural Theodore Roosevelt-Woodrow Wilson Public Service Award
Marriott, Ballroom Salon II

The Theodore Roosevelt-Woodrow Wilson Award is given occasionally by the Council of the American Historical Association to honor a public official or other civil servant who has made extraordinary contributions to the study, teaching, and public understanding of history. Named for Theodore Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson—two historians who served as presidents of both the American Historical Association and the United States—the award serves as a reminder that history should be not just the domain of professional scholars, but a living legacy and ongoing responsibility for all citizens.
