Ellen Carol DuBois is a professor of history and gender studies at the University of California, Los Angeles.[1] In 1998 she won the Joan Kelly Memorial Prize of the American Historical Association for her book Harriot Stanton Blatch and the Winning of Woman Suffrage (Yale University Press, 1997).[2]

DuBois became interested in history while in her senior year of high school.[3] She earned a B.A. from Wellesley College in 1968 and a Ph.D. from Northwestern University in 1975.[3] DuBois became interested in the women's liberation movement while she was a graduate student and started working with the Chicago Women's Liberation Union.[4][5] Her interest in the movement led to her becoming "one of the early pioneers of women's history," according to People's World.[4] After teaching at the University at Buffalo for 16 years, she moved to Los Angeles to continue teaching at UCLA.[6] She retired from UCLA in 2017.[4]
