Alberto Wilson, Ph.D.


Dr. Alberto Wilson is a current Mellon Fellow at the School for Advanced Research in Santa Fe, NM, and an incoming Assistant Professor of History at Texas Christian University. The Mary M. Hughes Fellowship will fund travel to the National Archives in Washington DC for research into the Immigration and Naturalization border commuter program in El Paso and Ciudad Juárez that permitted green-card holders to reside in Mexico and legally work in the United States during the 1960s and early 1970s. This research forms part of his larger manuscript, tentatively titled: Pan American Cities.
