BIASS is also funding Bischof’s research project “Quiet Invaders Revisited” – a collective biography of Austrian emigrants to the United States since the end of World War I.

In 2009-2010 Philipp Strobl from the University of Innsbruck studied in the UNO History Department as a Botstiber Fellow and worked on emigration biographies funded by the BIASS grant. He will complete his M.A. in History in the fall term of 2010 with a thesis on the emigrants to the U.S. from the Burgenland in the 1920s. He also collaborated with Bischof on an essay on Arnold Schwarzenegger to be published by the University of Heidelberg later this year.
