Christine Rosen (born 1973) is an American historian and author.[1] She is a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, a conservative think tank, and a columnist and podcaster for Commentary.
Born Christine Stolba, she was raised in a fundamentalist Christian family, which she later discussed in her 2005 memoir, My Fundamentalist Education: A Memoir of a Divine Girlhood.[1][2][3][4]
Rosen attended college at the University of South Florida, where she graduated summa cum laude with a B.A. in 1993. She then received a Ph.D. in history from Emory University in 1999.[1][5]
She collaborated with Diana Furchtgott-Roth on two books, Women's Figures: an illustrated guide to the economic progress of women in America (1999) and The Feminist Dilemma: when success is not enough (2001).
From 1999 to 2002, she worked at the Independent Women's Forum. While there, she published a short study Lying in a Room of One's Own: how women's studies textbooks miseducate students in 2002.
In 2003, she married law professor and author Jeffrey Rosen. The ceremony was performed by Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.[5] The couple later divorced.[6]
Her book Preaching eugenics: religious leaders and the American eugenics movement was published in 2004.
Rosen's book The Extinction of Experience was published in the United States in 2024[7] and in the United Kingdom in 2025.[8][9]
