A historian in front of the camera
From American political history to an appearance in Ali G: Who Iz I?
Brooklyn, New York, USA
Allan Lichtman is an American historian and author born on 4 April 1947 in Brooklyn, New York. He is known for research and public commentary on American political history.
Lichtman received a doctorate from Harvard University in 1973, specialising in modern American history and quantitative methods. He has taught history at American University in Washington, DC.
His books include The Keys to the White House, which presents a framework for forecasting presidential elections. The framework is a method of analysis rather than a guarantee of an election result.
Lichtman appears in Ali G: Who Iz I? (2026), a comedy that combines a fictional story with encounters involving real people. His inclusion in the film catalogue reflects that appearance, not an acting career.
The films below are those available on FLM.RED, not a complete list of his publications or appearances.
