M. has taught Jewish history at Ohio State University, Purchase College of the State University of New York, and elsewhere, and served as associate editor of the scholarly journal American Jewish History, Southern Jewish History, Shofar and Menorah Review.

M. is the author of seven books about the Holocaust, Zionism, and the history of American Jewry.  In his book ' Zionism and the Arabs: An American Jewish Dilemma, 1898-1948', M. asserts that Zionists did not see the Palestinian Arabs as a distinct national group with national rights - largely because the Palestinian Arabs themselves did not claim the status of a specific national grouping.
