Historical NoteReturn to Top
Ronald M. Smelser (b. 1942) is a Pennslyvania native. He graduated from Juanita College with his B.A. in 1964 and obtained his M.A. in history in 1966 and his Ph.D. in history in 1970 from the University of Wisconsin. Concurrent with his education in the United States, he also attended two German Universities: Phillipps-Universitat-Marburg and Rheinische-Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universitat Bonn. After finishing his doctoral work, he was appointed as an assistant professor at Alma College (Michigan) and was a visiting professor at Iowa State University. He came to the University of Utah in 1974 as an assistant professor and became an associate professor in 1976 and a full professor in 1983. Most of Smelser's work centers on Nazi Germany and the Holocaust. Among his books are The Sudeten Problem,Robert Ley: Hitler's Labor Front Leader, and The Myth of the Eastern Front. He has also edited many volumes on Nazi leaders and the Holocaust. In 2001, Smelser was instrumental in bringing the National Holocaust Museum's Nazi Olympics exhibit to the Marriott Library as part of the Cultural Olympiad. He continues to teach at the University of Utah and also teaches classes at the Free University of Berlin during the summer.
