Dan T. Carter is an American historian.
In 2009, he was the Dow Research Professor at the Roosevelt Center in Middelburg, the Netherlands.
[3] He was president of the Southern Historical Association.
In his 1991 article for The New York Times, "The Transformation of a Klansman", regarding the true identity of author Asa Earl Carter (who wrote as Forrest Carter), Carter suggested that their shared Southern heritage might make the two men distant cousins; this suggestion has subsequently been put forward as fact in later publications.
