Geoffrey Louis Rossano is an American author and historian with an emphasis on aviation, maritime and military history. He lives in Ashley Falls, MA and is an Instructor in History at the Salisbury School.[1] He was the 2010 winner of the Theodore and Franklin D. Roosevelt Naval History Prize for Stalking the U-Boat: U.S. Naval Aviation In Europe During World War I, a book that comprehensively examines how naval aviation during WW1 proved the usefulness of aviation in fleet operations.[2] Rossano’s most recent book was Hero of the Angry Sky: the World War I diary and letters of David S. Ingalls, America's first naval ace.[3]

Early life

His PhD was in American History and his dissertation was titled, “A subtle revolution : the urban transformation of rural life, New Gloucester, Maine, 1775-1930” (completed in 1980).[4]

Career

Some of Rossano's early projects include a series of Historic and Architectural Resource Surveys beginning in 1996 and running until 2003. The subjects of these surveys were the Connecticut towns of Sharon, Voluntown, Union, Lisbon, Sprague, Griswold, Manchester, Franklin and Orange and they were published with the support of the State Historic Preservation Office (formerly the Connecticut Historical Commission).[5][6]

Before becoming a teacher, Rossano worked in New York state government in the Office of the State Comptroller and the State Senate.[1] During this period, he served as vice president of the State’s Urban Development Corporation.[7]

Rossano also consulted on projects such as “museum exhibits, historic building surveys, and research reports” for local museums and historical societies.[1]
