About this person
She was formerly the Founding Director of the Strassler Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies and served as the Rose Professor of Holocaust History at Clark University in Worcester, Massachusetts. Dwork is credited with helping to establish the first doctoral program dedicated exclusively to Holocaust History and Genocide Studies through the Strassler Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies at Clark University. Her work contributed to the institutionalization of Holocaust and genocide studies as a distinct academic field. Dwork's scholarship has been noted for expanding Holocaust historiography beyond political and military history to include childhood, family life, welfare, gender, and individual agency. Her work helped shape subsequent scholarship on the social history of genocide. Dwork is the recipient of the Distinguished Achievement Award in Holocaust Studies from the Holocaust Educational Foundation in 2024; the Annetje Fels-Kupferschmidt Award bestowed by the Dutch Auschwitz Committee in 2022; and the International Network of Genocide Scholars Lifetime Achievement Award in 2020.
