D. Michael Quinn

Historian D. Michael Quinn is the author of several scholarly books about Mormons, including Early Mormonism and the Magic World View (Signature Books, 1998). In 1997, the American Historical Association gave him a best-book award for Same-Sex Dynamics Among Nineteenth-Century Americans: A Mormon Example (University of Illinois Press, 1996). He has worked as an independent scholar since 1988, when he resigned his tenured position as a history professor at Brigham Young University because of disputes over academic freedom. The church excommunicated the lifelong Mormon in 1993 over his writings about Mormon history. He is temporarily living in the Claremont, Calif., area.
