Daniel Chirot, Purnima Dhavan, David N. Myers, Sarah A. Stein, and Adam Warren provided invaluable feedback on earlier drafts of this article. I am grateful to Jeanne Morefield for sharing her knowledge of Zimmern’s thought and archival sources. Finally, I would like to thank Fred Krome of the American Jewish archives and Colin Harris of the Bodleian Library for their help in locating Zimmern’s archival material.
