Andrew Frank

Assistant Professor of History

Dr. Andrew Frank received his B.A. from Brandeis University (1992) and his MA (1994) and Ph.D. (1998) from the University of Florida. He is currently working on a book manuscript entitled The Second Conquest: Indians, Settlers and Slaves on the Florida Frontier. This volume explores how Seminole Indians obtained and then struggled to maintain autonomy during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Before joining the History Department at FSU in 2007, Dr. Frank taught at several universities, most recently at Florida Atlantic University. He is the author of Creeks and Southerners: Biculturalism on the Early American Frontier (2005), a volume that explores race and identity in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. He is also the editor of The American Revolution: People and Perspectives (2007) and author of The Routledge Historical Atlas of the American South (1999). Dr. Frank has published articles in the Georgia Historical Quarterly, Florida Historical Quarterly, and several book anthologies. He has received research grants and fellowships from the American Philosophical Society, American Historical Association, Newberry Library, and Huntington Library. In 2003, he received the E. Merton Coutler Award from the Georgia Historical Society for his article "The Rise and Fall of William McIntosh: Authority and Identity on the Early American Frontier.”
