Marshall S. Clough received his B.A. from Columbia University in 1967 and did his graduate work at Stanford University, earning a M.A. in modern European history in 1969 and a Ph.D. in African history in 1978. He joined the History Department of the University of Northern Colorado in 1975. In the History Department, Professor Clough has taught courses on Africa, Britain, Ireland, Western Civilization, World History and Islam. As a strong believer in interdisciplinary general education, he also taught outside the department in the Life of the Mind and Honors programs with colleagues from English, Philosophy, and Visual Arts.
Clough’s scholarly work has focused on the history of Kenya in the colonial and independent periods. He has written two books, (1990) and Mau Mau Memoirs: History, Memory, and Politics (1998), co-edited a bibliography of the Mau Mau revolt, written articles and book chapters, and presented papers at scholarly conferences. Clough is now engaged in a long-term project on the historical significance of prison memoirs in 20th-century Africa. He has received fellowships and grants from the Fulbright Program, and the National Endowment for the Humanities. Within Colorado, Clough has served on the boards of the Colorado Endowment for the Humanities and the Denver Center Theatre. Marshall Clough is married, and his wife Tony is an artist specializing in ceramic jewelry.
