Editorial Reviews

Review

“In this lively and insightful book, Mary Rizzo casts a keen eye on a group rarely examined in terms of style and social class: young men. A great read on a fascinating topic.” —Elaine Tyler May, author of Homeward Bound: American Families in the Cold War Era

“Mary Rizzo’s
Class Acts is a fascinating romp through a half century of style, fashion and popular culture. Brilliantly conceived, bristling with intelligence and analysis.” —William Graebner, author of Patty’s Got a Gun: Patricia Hearst in 1970s America

Mary Rizzo is a writer and educator specializing in modern U.S. cultural history, urban studies, public humanities, and digital humanities.

Her book, Come and Be Shocked: Baltimore Beyond John Waters and The Wire, examines battles over the image of Baltimore by famous and infamous artists and city agencies trying to woo tourists and residents, showing how culture shapes cities and vice versa. Find upcoming book talks here.

As a public historian, she has done everything from lead tours of an 18th century house museum to strategic planning for the New Jersey Council for the Humanities. She brings her passion for inclusive public history to her work at Rutgers University-Newark where she created the public humanities MA track in the Graduate Program in American Studies to prepare students to be leaders in public history and humanities organizations. In 2017, Rizzo won the Teaching Award from the New Jersey Studies Academic Alliance for the traveling and digital exhibit, Rebellion to Review Board: Newark Fights for Police Accountability.
