Bio
Carlos Salomon received his Ph. D. at the University of New Mexico in Borderlands and Latin American History. He is an interdisciplinary scholar and activist who likes to cross intellectual and geographic boundaries. His teaching interests are in the areas of social movements, oral traditions, and immigration. His research interests vary widely and include California before and after US occupation, oral history, and US-Mexico relations. Dr. Salomon recently published Pio Pico: The Last Governor of Mexican California with the University of Oklahoma Press (2010). He is currently working on a book that examines US-Mexican relations through the lens of cultural and intellectual collaborations on American Indian life, and specifically through the government-sponsored project known as indigenismo.
