Frederick A. Winter
Program Officer
National Endowment for the Humanities

Frederick A. Winter (B.A. Brooklyn College, Ph.D. University of Pennsylvania) taught in the departments of anthropology and classics at Brooklyn College and The Graduate Center of the City University of New York from 1973 through 1992. His administrative and curriculum development experience at Brooklyn College included service as chair of the Faculty Council Core Curriculum Committee, which is responsible for administering the college's nationally recognized, thirteen course core sequence. In 1993 he resigned his professorship and joined the National Endowment for the Humanities where he served as a program officer in the Division of Education and the Office of Challenge Grants. His primary concerns at NEH were projects focusing on undergraduate curricula and the use of emerging technologies in humanities education. Winter remained at NEH until 1995 when he co-founded National Grants & Fellowship Consultants. He returned to NEH in 1996 as a consultant to help complete the guidelines and conduct the first review panel for the Endowment's Teaching with Technology funding opportunity. While maintaining his consulting business in higher education and cultural program fund raising, he is currently the director of corporate and foundation relations at Hood College in Frederick, Maryland.
