An Experimental College History Class: How to Teach History in a Fun Way (1993)
Brinkley was born in Atlanta, Georgia. His parents were high school teachers. Raised in Perrysburg, Ohio, he earned his B.A. from Ohio State University (1982), and his M.A. (1983) and Ph.D. (1989) from Georgetown University in U.S. diplomatic history. He has been on the faculty of Hofstra University, the University of New Orleans, Tulane University, and Rice University. He received an honorary doctorate for his contributions to American letters from Trinity College in Hartford, Connecticut.
During the early 1990s, Brinkley taught American Arts and Politics for Hofstra aboard the Majic Bus, a roving transcontinental classroom, from which emerged the book, The Majic Bus: An American Odyssey (1993). In 1993, he left Hofstra to teach at the University of New Orleans, where he taught the class again using two natural-gas fueled buses. According to the Associated Press, ...if you can't tour the United States yourself, the next best thing is to go along with Douglas Brinkley aboard The Majic Bus.[5]
Brinkley worked closely with his mentor, historian Stephen E. Ambrose, then director of the Eisenhower Center for American Studies at the University of New Orleans. Ambrose chose Brinkley to become director of the Eisenhower Center, a post he held for five years before moving to Tulane University.
Brinkley’s first book was Jean Monnet: The Path to European Unity (1992). The publication of Dean Acheson: The Cold War Years (1992) brought Brinkley popular acclaim. He then co-edited a monograph series with Arthur Schlesinger, Jr. and William vanden Heuvel in the 1990s. Brinkley also edited a volume on Dean Acheson and the Making of US Foreign Policy with Paul H. Nitze (1993).
Brinkley is the literary executor for his late friend, the journalist and author Hunter S. Thompson. He is also the editor of a three-volume collection of Thompson's letters. Brinkley is also the authorized biographer for Beat generation author Jack Kerouac, having edited Kerouac's diaries as Windblown World (2004).
He has also written profiles of popular writers, Kurt Vonnegut,[6] Norman Mailer, and Ken Kesey for Rolling Stone magazine. In 2009, Brinkley interviewed Bob Dylan in Paris and Amsterdam for a Rolling Stone cover story.[7]
In 2004, Brinkley released Tour of Duty: John Kerry and the Vietnam War, about U.S. Senator John Kerry's military service and anti-war activism during the Vietnam War. The 2004 documentary movie, Going Upriver: The Long War of John Kerry, is loosely based on Brinkley's book.[8] Brinkley also wrote the Atlantic Monthly cover story of December 2003 on Kerry.[9]
Brinkley's book The Great Deluge: Hurricane Katrina, New Orleans, and the Mississippi Gulf Coast is a record of the effects of Hurricane Katrina on the Gulf Coast. The book won the 2007 Robert F. Kennedy Book Award and was a Los Angeles Times book prize finalist. He also served as the primary historian for Spike Lee's documentary about Hurricane Katrina, When the Levees Broke: A Requiem in Four Acts. Critic Nancy Franklin in The New Yorker noted that Brinkley made up a large part of the film's conscience.[10]
Brinkley's biography of Walter Cronkite, Cronkite was published in 2012.[11] It was also selected as a Washington Post Book of the Year.
Brinkley and Johnny Depp were nominated for a Grammy for their co-authoring of the liner notes to the documentary: Gonzo: The Life and Work of Dr. Hunter S. Thompson. He also co-edited with Johnny Depp the long lost novel of Woody Guthrie titled House of Earth.

His first language is Jakaltek-Maya or popb'al ti'. He received his M.A. from the State University of New York and his Ph.D. from the University of Connecticut. Montejo was formerly Minister of Peace in the Guatemalan Republic. He also served as a member of the Guatemalan National Congress from January 2004 to January 2008. Montejo is the author of numerous books about Maya history and culture. His work centers on Maya cultural revitalization, the impact of Guatemala's civil war on Maya communities, and the transnational Maya diaspora as a consequence of the war. Montejo's books include Sculpted Stones; Testimony: Death of a Guatemalan Village; The Bird Who Cleans the World and Other Mayan Fables; Voices from Exile: Violence and Survival in Modern Maya History; and Maya Intellectual Renaissance: Identity, Representation, and Leadership.

The Nightmare World of Gang Stalking
More than 10,000 people worldwide claim they're the victims of a vast organized surveillance effort designed to ruin their lives, a phenomenon known as gang stalking. Mental health experts see gang stalking as a symptom of paranoia, but the self-identified victims who insist what they're experiencing is real have come together online and in support groups to share their stories.
VICE met up with a handful of Americans who claim their lives have been derailed by gang stalking to understand what serious consequences the phenomenon presents. Then we hear from Dr. Josh Bazell, one of many physicians who believes the victims of gang stalking are experiencing dangerous delusions that could be treated by mental health professionals.

Exploring a New Paradigm on the Korean Peninsula-Part3
Events of 2016 suggest the United States and the Republic of Korea (ROK) are entering uncharted waters on the Korean peninsula. North Korea’s fourth nuclear test and its rejection of denuclearization talks signal a “new normal” in its intransigent behavior. In South Korea, President Park Geun-hye has responded by the unprecedented closing of the Kaesong Industrial Complex, and is welcoming of new missile defense cooperation within the U.S.-ROK alliance that puts at risk her engagement strategy with China. The United States is transitioning to a level of heightened sanctioning not seen before, but at the same time, shows interest in peace treaty talks in parallel with a resumption of denuclearization dialogue.
How do we navigate these uncharted waters? Is there a strategy to manage these new challenges? Will China reach the limits of its patience with its communist ally? What is the future of inter-Korean relations? How will the next American president deal with North Korea?
World experts will converge on Washington, D.C. on Tuesday, May 3, 2016 for the sixth annual JoongAng Ilbo-CSIS Forum to address these and other issues of importance. Scholars, experts, opinion leaders, and former government officials will assess the internal situation in North Korea: What is the meaning of the continued high-level purges? What should we expect to see in its first Party Congress in over 36 years? Panels will look at the U.S.-ROK alliance: What is the state of extended deterrence in the face of North Korea’s fourth nuclear test? How have the American presidential candidates thought about the peninsula? What would a U.S. policy review on North Korea in the next administration look like? Opinion leaders will also unpack the regional context, analyzing the complex and new dynamics emerging among China, Japan, Russia, and other players.
These among other questions will be addressed in the Forum, the first JoongAng-CSIS Forum to take place in Washington, D.C.
