}}Timothy Naftali is a Canadian-American historian who is clinical associate professor of public service at New York University.[1] From 2007 to 2011, he directed the Richard Nixon Presidential Library and Museum. He was appointed when control of the Library was transferred from the Richard Nixon Foundation to the National Archives and Records Administration.[2][3] His biggest task at the library was to present a more objective and unbiased picture of the Watergate scandal—a task completed in March 2011, when the Library's new Watergate gallery opened and received extensive news coverage.[3] Naftali left the Nixon Library later that year.[4] He is a regular CNN contributor as a CNN presidential historian.[5]

Previously Naftali's area of focus was the history of counterterrorism and the Cold War.[6][7] Before taking the Nixon Library position, Naftali had been an associate professor at the University of Virginia, where he directed the Miller Center of Public Affairs' Presidential Recordings Program.[8] In the 1990s, he taught at the University of Hawaii and Yale University.[9] He has written four books, two of them co-authored with Alexander Fursenko on the Cuban Missile Crisis and Nikita Khrushchev.[10]

He served as a consultant to the 9/11 Commission, which commissioned him to write an unclassified history of American counterterrorism policy. This was later expanded into his well-received 2005 book Blind Spot: The Secret History of American Counterterrorism.[11][12][13]

Naftali was born in Montreal and at one point worked as an aide to Robert Bourassa. In 2007, he told the Toronto Star that he left Canada for the US in response to Quebec's language laws: "It seemed to me that the deck was stacked against civil liberties and I preferred to be in a country where I didn't have to worry about what language I spoke."[14] He earned his undergraduate degree from Yale, and later obtained graduate degrees from Johns Hopkins and Harvard.[10]

Naftali is currently writing a book about John F. Kennedy.

Naftali is openly gay.[15][16]
