Why Is Charles Ingrao Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Charles W. Ingrao is an historian and public intellectual focused on early modern Central Europe and the contemporary Balkans. Born and raised in New York City, he attended Richmond Hill High School. He received his BA from Wesleyan in 1969 and his PhD from Brown in 1974, studying under Norman Rich and William F. Church. He is a professor of history at Purdue University and has held visiting positions around the world. In 2001, he founded and still directs “The Scholars' Initiative."

As of 2011, the project had brought together over 300 scholars from 30 nations, including all of the states of the former Yugoslavia.
