Elizabeth Wood
Professor Wood received her undergraduate degree from Harvard
College in Russian History and Literature in 1980, and her Ph.D.
from the University of Michigan in Russian and Soviet History in
1991.
Her research interests are primarily focused on the 1920s in Soviet
Russia with attention to women's history, cultural history and
political history. In 1996 she received the Levitan Prize for her
research on political trials performed as plays in workers' and
student clubs from 1920-1933. Her first book, The Baba and the
Comrade: Gender and Politics in Revolutionary Russia (1997) was
published by Indiana University Press. Her current book manuscript
is entitled "Performing Justice: Agitation Trials in Revolutionary
Russia, 1920-1933" (forthcoming). Currently, Professor Wood is the
Director of Women's Studies at MIT.
