He became president in 1938 after the sudden death of Lotus Coffman. He left the University of Minnesota in November 1941 to become the executive secretary of the American Historical Association in Washington, D.C., and Editor of American Historical Review (until 1953).[1]
Ford's doctoral thesis (Columbia University, 1903) was entitled Hanover and Prussia, 1795–1803. A Study in Neutrality. Before he went to the University of Minnesota, he was a faculty member of Yale University and the University of Illinois. He was also a member of the Literary Society of Washington and the American Philosophical Society.[2][3]
