Timeline
Lawrence Howard Fuchs (January 29, 1927 – March 17, 2013) was an American academic and author.
He was a scholar of American studies and an expert on immigration policy who founded the American studies department at Brandeis University, where he was the Meyer and Walter Jaffe Professor of American Civilization and Politics.
Fuchs was born in The Bronx in 1927, the son of Jewish immigrants from Austria.
His brother, Victor, went on to be a prominent health economist.
Fuchs served in the U.S. Navy during World War II as a medic.
They had three daughters together.
He began teaching at Harvard University in 1952 before finishing his doctorate there in 1955.
He then began teaching at Brandeis in 1955.
From 1961 until 1963, Fuchs was the first Peace Corps director in the Philippines.
He later wrote a book, Those Peculiar Americans: The Peace Corps and American National Character, about his experiences with the Peace Corps.
Fuchs later founded the Commonwealth Service Corps in Massachusetts, a domestic service organization similar to the Peace Corps.

Among his courses was a seminar on American politics that he co-taught with Eleanor Roosevelt, who was a visiting professor at the time.

That same year, Fuchs married Betty Corcoran Fuchs, who had one daughter and three sons from a previous marriage.
In 1979, Fuchs worked as the Executive Director of the Select Commission on Immigration and Refugee Policy in the Carter administration.
His efforts led to signing and passage of the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986, and later the Immigration Act of 1990.
The Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 was the first major U.S. immigration reform enacted since 1965 and was signed into law by President Ronald Reagan.
In 1990 Fuchs served as vice chairman of the United States Commission on Immigration Reform, a congressional advisory board.
In 1997, the commission recommended increased policing of employers that hire illegal immigrants: a proposal that continues to be contested.
