S4E11 Philipp Stelzel - Duquesne University

Today's guest is the highly intellectual and equally highly satirical Philipp Stelzel. Philipp is an Associate Professor of History and Graduate Director for History at Duquesne University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Before finding his academic home at Duquesne, Philipp taught at Duke University and Boston College, and also served as a Fellow of the Center for Advanced Studies at the University of Munich. He earned his BA in History from Ludwig-Maximilians Universität in Munich, an MA in History from Columbia University, and a PhD in Modern European Transnational and Global History from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

Philipp is the author of History after Hitler: A Transatlantic Enterprise (Penn) and has published articles in History Compass and Central European History. He has worked with the American-German Institute and the American Institute for Contemporary German Studies. Philipp is also the author of the brilliant tongue-in-cheek cocktail commentary on academia titled The Faculty Lounge: A Cocktail Guide for Academics (Indiana). Philipp has received funding from the German Historical Institute, the Fulbright Foundation, and the American Historical Association, among others.

Join us for a deep dive into German history, Shirley Horn, lederhosen, Birkenstocks, and, yes, cocktails.
