CISS Affiliate Rachel Nolan Nominated for a Pulitzer Prize

Professor Rachel Nolan

Professor Rachel Nolan (Pardee) earned a Pulitzer Prize nomination for her debut book Until I Find You: Disappeared Children and Coercive Adoptions from Guatemala, published by Harvard University Press, in the category of General Nonfiction. Based on her research on Guatemala’s harrowing adoption industry between 1977 and 2007, the book is a tragic account of how the Global North families benefited from civil unrest, inequality, and exploitation in the Global South. By pulling this untold story to the surface, the journalist-turned-historian hoped to educate more people about the atrocities endured by innocent children and families in Guatemala.

Nolan is currently working on her second book covering histories of deportation to Latin America.
