Mary Logan Rothschild is an Emeritus Professor of women and gender studies. She specializes in the history of American women and feminism, women's oral history and gender equity in education. In her teaching, she tries to inspire students to critically evaluate the past with empathy and care. All of her teaching uses gender as a primary lens to analyze society and to understand the intersection of race and class in American society. She has written "A Case of Black and White: Northern Volunteers and the Southern Freedom Summers, 1964-1965" and "Doing What the Day Brought: An Oral History of Arizona Women." Currently, she is working on two research projects: "Girl Scouting and the Culture of American Womanhood, 1912-1982," which uses Girl Scouting as a window on American girlhood and womanhood in the 20th century, and "Living U.S. Women's History: Voices from the Field," which is an oral history project on the founding of the field of U.S. women's history and a rich collection of 50 extensive interviews. Teaching at all levels is her passion and she has been awarded the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences Dean's Quality Teaching Award, the ASU Alumni Association Faculty Achievement Award for Excellence in Teaching and the Arizona Humanities Council's Scholar of the Year Award.
