Dissertation

Mark graduated from CUNY Macaulay Honors College at Brooklyn College in 2015 with a B.A. in History and Archival Studies Minor. Mark did archival work at the Brooklyn College Archives and the YIVO Archives at the Center for Jewish History. He has researched the involvement of the British diplomats and Royal Navy in the New York draft riots of 1863.

Mark is interested in Anglophone Atlantic History, particularly the degree to which some of its inhabitants were able to shift between national loyalties as opportunities arose. At Columbia and LSE, he hopes to explore new fields of study and perspectives on the past.
