Lewis received his PhD in classical studies at Cambridge University in 2001, with the dissertation, Solon’s Polis as Kosmos: Intellectual, Moral and Political Integration in Archaic Athens. He taught at the University of London from 2000-2001. From 2001 to 2008, he was a professor in the History and Political Science Department at Ashland University,[3] where contention surrounding his denial of promotion to tenured professor drew national attention.[4] Lewis was a member of the American Political Science Association, the Association of Ancient Historians, the Society for Military History, the American Philological Association, and the Cambridge Philological Society.[3] Lewis published three books, was a contributing editor to The Objective Standard and contributed to Capitalism Magazine and contributed to multiple publications including Journal of Business Ethics, Social Philosophy and Policy, Polis, Dike, and Bryn Mawr Classical Review.[5] Lewis frequently spoke at Objectivist conferences and Tea Party events. He also spoke on the morality of free markets in medicine, arguing that innovators ought to be freed from unnecessary regulation.[6] In 2008 Lewis held a presentation at the "Facing Jihad" conference in Jerusalem,[7] a counter-jihad summit hosted by MK Aryeh Eldad that included a screening of the film Fitna by Geert Wilders.[8]
Lewis died on January 3, 2012, after a long battle with cancer.[9][6] He was 56.
