Past Committee. This committee has completed its work and is no longer active.

The Task Force on Public History was established in 2001 for a three-year term. After a one-year extension, the task force disbanded in January 2005. The goal of the Task Force was to facilitate better relations between the Association and public historians. The Professional Division now has primary oversight over public history in the Association.
