Kathryn Kish Sklar

Kathryn (Kitty) Kish Sklar (born December 1939) is an American historian, author, and professor.

Her work focuses on the history of women's participation in social movements, voluntary organizations, and American public culture.

In 1997, Sklar received a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities to begin the Women in Social Movements in the United States 1600-2000 project as a senior seminar at Binghamton University.

The site includes over one hundred document projects, and Sklar continues to release biannual editions of new document projects and full-text sources for the study of women's history with historian Thomas Dublin.
