Biography

In 1980, King graduated summa cum laude with a B.A. in Political Science from the State University of New York at New Paltz.[2] In 1981 he earned an M.A. and in 1984 a Ph.D. in Political Science at the University of Wisconsin–Madison in Madison.

King's career in academia began in 1984, when he became an Assistant Professor in the Department of Politics at New York University. He joined the faculty of Harvard's Department of Government in 1987 and has taught there since. He has also been a visiting fellow at Oxford University. To date, he has authored or coauthored seven books (six published and one forthcoming) and nearly 100 journal articles and book chapters.

King is one of 24 professors with "Harvard's most distinguished faculty title".[2]

He is the step-brother of the sociologist Mitchell Duneier.
