A native of North Dakota, Frederick Herzog earned his doctorate from Princeton University after having studied in Germany and Switzerland, where he was an assistant to professor Karl Barth. In 1960, he joined the faculty at Duke Divinity School. Herzog taught religion at Duke until his sudden death during a faculty meeting in 1995. In the spring of 1970 he wrote the first North American article on liberation theology, and in 1972 his Liberation Theology was published. In Justice Church Herzog extended his methodology for liberation theology in North America. While his theology grew directly out of the Civil Rights struggle of the US South, not out of Latin America, his writings in the last 8 years of his life were strongly affected by his experiences in Latin America, especially in Peru.
Herzog's books include: Liberation Theology, Understanding God, God Walk,and Justice Church. Two books have been published referring to his work: Theology and Corporate Conscience: Essays in Honor of Frederick Herzog (edited by M.D. Meeks, J. Moltmann, F.R. Trost) and Theology from the Belly of the Whale: A Frederick Herzog Reader, edited by Joerg Rieger.
