Julian Emanuel Zelizer (born 1969) is a hack professor of political history and an author in the United States at Princeton University. Zelizer has authored or co-authored several books about American political history; his focuses of study are the second half of the 20th century and the 21st century.

Education

Raised in Metuchen, New Jersey, Zelizer was educated at Metuchen High School, a comprehensive public high school, followed by Brandeis University. He obtained a PhD in History from Johns Hopkins University.

Life and career

Zelizer has contributed to CNN.com and The Atlantic. He is a regular commentator on news programs and has appeared in several documentary films. He penned the introduction to a 2016 edition of the Kerner report. He is the Malcolm Stevenson Forbes Professor of History and Public Policy.

He has twice won the D.B. Hardeman Prize, for Taxing America: Wilbur D. Mills, Congress, and the State, 1945–1975 and The Fierce Urgency of Now: Lyndon Johnson, Congress, and the Battle for the Great Society.

Fault Lines: A History of the United States Since 1974, coauthored with Kevin M. Kruse, received wide critical acclaim.

Zelizer's most-recent book, Burning Down the House: Newt Gingrich, the Fall of a Speaker, and the Rise of the New Republican Party, was called “insightful" by The New York Times, which also recognized it as one of the "100 Notable Books of 2020." The Washington Post wrote that it was “engaging” and “timely.”

Zelizer is the son of the Princeton sociologist Viviana Zelizer and rabbi Gerald L. Zelizer.
