Irwin Unger (born 1927, Brooklyn, New York) is an American historian and academic specializing in economic history, the history of the 1960s, and the history of the Gilded Age. He earned his Ph.D. from Columbia University in 1958 and is currently Professor Emeritus of History at New York University. Unger won the Pulitzer Prize for History in 1965 for his book, The Greenback Era. His most recent book, written in collaboration with Stanley Hirshson, a Queens College historian, and Debi Unger, an editor at HarperCollins, is a 2014 biography of George Marshall. Debi Unger is a journalist who has collaborated with her husband, Irwin Unger, on The Guggenheims and The Vulnerable Years, Twentieth-Century America, and Turning Point: 1968. She has also written "Portraits and Documents for These United States: The Questions of Our Past.

The Ungers give a sense of what the family dynamic was. This work provides a fascinating background on mining and other aspects of American society and industry early in the 20th century.
