Dr. Stephen R. Ortiz, Assistant Professor and Graduate Coordinator (Ph.D., University of Florida, 2004). Dr. Ortiz joined the BGSU Department of History in the Fall of 2007. His book Beyond the Bonus March and GI Bill: How Veteran Politics Shaped the New Deal Era examines U.S. veteran's policy and the political activism of military veterans during the interwar period. He has published
articles in the Journal of Military History and the Journal of Policy History. The article "The 'New Deal' for Veterans: The Economy Act, the Veterans of Foreign Wars, and the Origins of New Deal
Dissent" was awarded the 2007 Moncado Prize by the Society for Military History for best article in the 2006 Journal of Military History. Dr. Ortiz is currently working on two projects: an edited volume under contract to the University Press of Florida titled
The Politics of Veterans' Policy: Federal Policies and Veterans in the Modern United States and a new monograph project tentatively titled Comrades in Arms: Veteran Organizations and the Creation of the Modern American Warfare State, 1935-1960. His teaching interests range broadly in the political, military, diplomatic, and gender history of the twentieth-century
United States. More information can be found on Dr. Ortiz’s webpage: http://personal.bgsu.edu/~sortiz/.
