Lowell Gomideh, Kaligian has made a number of speaking engagements
there, most notably as chair of the Armenian National Committee of
America (ANCA) Eastern United States.

media outlets regarding denial of the Armenian Genocide.

2003. He is the author of Armenian Organization and Ideology under
Ottoman Rule: 1908-1914, published by Transaction Publishers.
He has been a visiting professor of Armenian Genocide studies at Clark
University and has also taught at Westfield State, Wheaton College,
and Regis College. He has also served as managing editor of the
Armenian Review. His articles have been published in many leading
publications.
