Our guest today is Dr. Tanya L. Roth. Tanya is an Upper School History Teacher at the Mary Institute and Saint Louis Country Day School (MICDS) in St. Louis, Missouri. She completed a BA in History and BA in English at the University of Missouri in Columbia, Missouri, and went on to earn her Ph.D. in History at Washington University in St. Louis.
Tanya is an accomplished teacher. She served as the J. Evan Philips Chair of Distinguished Teaching in History at MICDS for 2017-2020, and she has been selected to participate in teaching workshops organized by the American Bar Association/Federal Judicial Center and the National Endowment for the Humanities. She is a veteran of the West Point Summer Seminar in Military History and participated in the Oxbridge Teacher Seminar, “Why History Matters,” at the University of Cambridge.
Tanya also publishes regularly, and her works have appeared in Contingent magazine and the Washington Post. She contributed an essay titled "An Attractive Career for Women: Opportunities, Limitations, and Women's Integration in the Cold War Military," to Douglas Bristol, Jr., and Heather Marie Stur’s edited volume Integrating the U.S. Military: Minorities and Women Since World War II. The University of North Carolina Press published her first monograph, Her Cold War: Women in the U.S. Military, 1945-1980, in 2021, which received the Society for Military History’s Coffman Prize for the Best First Manuscript in 2019. Tanya’s research has been funded by the Gerald Ford Presidential Foundation, the John F. Kennedy Library Foundation, and the Lyndon B. Johnson Foundation, and the American Association of University Women.
Tanya teaches high school students, dabbles in the world of American Girl Dolls, and would gladly have Roy Kent on her soccer team - and pork seems to be outrunning brisket in the Great BBQ Debate!
