Thomas Wendell "Tom" Simpson (born 1975) is a scholar, teacher, and writer in the fields of religion, human rights, and social justice. He currently teaches seminars on human rights, the Holocaust, Islam, religion and global feminism, existentialist literature and philosophy, religion and popular culture, and U.S. religious history at Phillips Exeter Academy.
Simpson's first book, American Universities and the Birth of Modern Mormonism, 1867-1940, won the Mormon History Association's Best Book Award.[citation needed] A Congregationalist, Simpson studies religious diversity, conflict, and coexistence in the U.S. and abroad. J. Spencer Fluhman called Simpson's book "an elegant, original contribution and a must-read for anyone interested in American religion and the life of the mind."[1]
Simpson's other published writings focus on the religious, political, and cultural landscapes of postwar Bosnia and Herzegovina. His nonfiction essays All We Have Left (2014)[2] and Recovery's Rhythm and Blues (2016)[3] have appeared in the Canadian literary magazine Numéro Cinq.
