Dianna Levine Memorial Scholar-in-Residence Program
We welcome applications for a 1-to-4 week writing retreat and residency at Grey Towers National Historic Site.
Professional historians and graduate students with a research project on forest or natural history conservation, the USDA Forest Service or Gifford Pinchot and his family, are invited to apply for the opportunity to reside at Gifford Pinchot’s ancestral home, immersing themselves in the site where Pinchot gained the inspiration to write, legislate, and tirelessly work on behalf of forest conservation.
