David Ingram is Professor of Philosophy at Loyola University, Chicago. He received his Ph.D. from the University of California at San Diego in 1980, where he received his first exposure to critical theory. He is the author of several book. His book, Reason, History, and Politics (1995) was awarded the Alpha Sigma Nu Prize in 1997. His life can be read from these pages as well: he organized boycotts on behalf of the United Farm Workers Union, accompanied Loyola's students on their journey of awakening to Central America and the Caribbean, worked with Guatemalan refugees and community organizers in Chicago, and learned about the possibilities and limits of development while visiting the slums of Kibera with aid providers. He received Casa Guatemala's Human Rights Award in 1998 for sponsoring Guatemalan speakers to visit Loyola.
