Megan Koreman (‘86) was a PLS major at Notre Dame before earning her PhD from the University of California at Berkeley in modern European history. The Escape Line: How the Ordinary Heroes of Dutch-Paris Resisted the Nazi Occupation of Western Europe was published by Oxford University Press. Koreman taught at Texas Tech and the University of Michigan and is currently part of a European research workshop on transnational resistance headed by Robert Gildea at Oxford.
