Marsha E. Barrett is an Associate Professor in the Department of History at Illinois University. Her research focuses on United States political history, policy history, and African American history, particularly examining the social and political dynamics of the twentieth century.

Her forthcoming book, "Nelson Rockefeller's Dilemma: Fight to Save Moderate Republicanism," analyzes the political relationships of New York Governor Nelson Rockefeller with Vice President Gerald Ford and the electorate amidst the rise of conservatism in the Republican Party.
