He currently is in his second three-year term as Distinguished Lecturer for the Organization of American Historians.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Kuznick has lectured and written extensively on the 1960s. Dr. Kuznick also has also written two, soon-to-be-released documentary films on the 1960s &#8212; one focused on the early Cold War and the other about the Kennedy years &#8212; in collaboration with Hollywood producer Oliver Stone.  <\/p>\n<p>Employees are encouraged to bring their lunches to Dr. Kuznick&#8217;s presentation. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Historians have passionately debated John F.
