Italian Americana is a peer-reviewed cultural/historical journal devoted to the Italian-American experience.
Italian Americana was founded in 1974 by Richard Gambino, Ernest Falbo, and Bruno Arcudi under the auspices of Queens College, City University of New York, where Gambino taught. Dr. Gambino was the author of Blood of My Blood: The Dilemma of Italian‐Americans and founder of the Italian‐American studies program at Queens College. In 1989, Carole Bonomo Albright became editor, and the journal was published by the University of Rhode Island. Dana Gioia served as poetry editor from 1994 until 2003, when he was appointed chairman of the National Endowment for the Arts. Other notable editors have included novelist Christine Palamidessi Moore and poets Michael Palma and Maria Terrone. In 2015, Carla Simonini became editor, and the journal moved to Youngstown State University.
The journal is published twice a year and publishes history, fiction, memoirs, poetry, and reviews.
