The Western Association of Women Historians was founded in 1969 to promote the interests of women historians both in academic settings and in the field of history generally.
Drawing scholars from the Western states, the WAWH is the largest of the regional women's historical associations in the U.S.
The WAWH encourages the participation of academic historians and independent scholars, and welcomes literary scholars and art, theater, and film specialists.
