The State Historical Society of Iowa named Andrew Klumpp the new editor of the Annals of Iowa, a scholarly journal of Iowa history first published in 1863, the State Historical Society announced today. Klumpp replaces Marv Bergman, who is retiring after editing the Annals since 1986. Klumpp is a native of northwest Iowa and a Ph.D. candidate in American religious history at Southern Methodist University in Dallas. His research examines the intersection of religion, imperialism and settler colonialism in the 19th-century Midwest. Klumpp assumed the position last week and will office full time out of the State Historical Building.
