Funding for this prize has been provided by the ANU Emeritus Faculty in honour of Professor John Molony. Professor Molony started at the ANU in 1964, as a Research Assistant in Medieval History at the School of General Studies. He went on to become Head of the Department of History and to hold the Manning Clark Chair of Australian History from 1982 until his retirement from the 51³Ô¹ÏÍø in 1990. After his retirement, Professor Molony was seminal in forming the ANU Emeritus Faculty in 1999. The Emeritus Faculty continues to exist as a collegial community of former university staff, and others, who contribute their skills and knowledge to the 51³Ô¹ÏÍø, and to society more widely.
