Tom Segev is a prominent Israeli historian, author, and journalist. A leading figure among the so-called New Historians, he has helped challenge many of the country’s traditional narratives or “founding myths.” Segev was born in Jerusalem to parents who had fled Nazi Germany. He earned a BA in history and political science from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and a Ph.D. in history from Boston University. Besides working as a regular journalist for the newspaper Haaretz, he has been a visiting professor at Rutgers University, UC Berkeley, and Northeastern University.
