  Daniel Cohen is doing his fair share to advance the digital humanities. He started at George Mason University more than 10 years ago, where he officed from a trailer. Today, he and his team reach more than 16 million people and have developed countless resources. They started camps for those interested in mixing digital tools and humanities scholarship. They built PressForward to publish online works and they created Zotero, to help scholars gather resources. He has also helped on projects such as the September 11 Digital Archive and other science-history projects with Mr. Rosenzweig. He too is a supporter of distant reading.
