Michael Joseph Sugrue (February 1, 1957 – January 16, 2024) was an American historian and university professor. He spent his early career teaching at Columbia University and conducting research as a Mellon fellow at Johns Hopkins University prior to teaching at Princeton University, where he was the Behrman Fellow at Princeton's Council on the Humanities. After holding various positions at Princeton for over a decade, Sugrue left in 2004 to become a professor of history at Ave Maria University.
In 2020, Sugrue began to acquire an audience when his daughter, Genevieve Sugrue, started publishing his 1992 lecture series Great Minds of the Western Intellectual Tradition (taken while he was teaching at Princeton) on YouTube.
