Author Snapshot

David Hamilton Golland

Dr. David Hamilton Golland is dean of humanities and social sciences and Professor of History at Monmouth University. He holds a PhD from the City University of New York and an MA from the University of Virginia. Prior to his appointment at Monmouth, Golland was Professor of History at Governors State University. His first two books, Constructing Affirmative Action: The Struggle for Equal Employment Opportunity (University Press of Kentucky, 2011) and A Terrible Thing to Waste: Arthur Fletcher and the Conundrum of the Black Republican (University Press of Kansas, 2019), garnered positive reviews in the top academic history journals. Dr. Golland's third book, Livin' Just to Find Emotion: Journey and the Story of American Rock (Rowman & Littlefield, 2024), charts a new path in rock biography by adding a professional historian's touch to a genre dominated by journalists and memoirists.
