Jennifer M. Miller is a scholar of U.S. foreign relations since 1945, focusing on interactions between the United States and Northeast Asia. Her research examines the intersections between international interactions and domestic ideas, ideologies, and political narratives; her work explores how new relationships between the United States and East Asia after World War II transformed both sides' thinking about democracy, citizenship, economic growth, and education. Miller received her Ph.D. in the history of U.S. foreign relations and international history from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 2012. She currently offers courses on U.S. empire, World War II, trans-Pacific migrations, and the impact of a century of warmaking (a.k.a. "forever war") on American life.
