Daniel Cumming

I'm an urban and environmental historian of the 20th century US. I study heat, health, housing, and inequality in New York City, particularly after World War II. I'm a postdoctoral research fellow at Queens College, CUNY, and I'm part of an international research project shared between Queens College and the University of Liverpool, titled "Melting Metropolis: Everyday Histories of Heat and Health in London, New York, and Paris since 1945" https://www.meltingmetropolis.com/
