Smith is the current Board of Governors Distinguished History Professor at Rutgers University, New Brunswick.^[1] Smith attended Smith College, earning a bachelor's degree there in 1962 and later earning a Ph.D from the University of Rochester in 1976. She has since held fellowships from the Guggenheim Foundation, the Shelby Cullom Davis Center for Historical Studies at Princeton University, the American Council of Learned Societies, the National Humanities Center, and the University of Rochester.^[2]
