The American Mathematical Monthly is a peer-reviewed scientific journal of mathematics. It was established by Benjamin Finkel in 1894 and is published by Taylor & Francis on behalf of the Mathematical Association of America. It is an expository journal intended for a wide audience of mathematicians and has since become "the most widely read mathematics journal in the world". The editor-in-chief is Annalisa Crannell. The journal gives the Lester R. Ford Award annually to "authors of articles of expository excellence" published in the journal.
History In January of 1894, Benjamin Finkel established the journal naming it "The American Mathematical Monthly." Finkel and John Marvin Colaw were the founding editors of the journal. The journal was founded to be "a journal for teachers of mathematics in the collegiate and advanced secondary fields."
Between 1913 and 1916 the journal was self-published by its owners at the time: the University of Chicago, University of Colorado, University of Illinois, Indiana University, University of Iowa, University of Kansas, University of Michigan, University of Minnesota, University of Missouri, University of Nebraska, Northwestern University, Washington University, Colorado College, and Oberlin College.
Since 2018, the journal has been published in English by Taylor & Francis on behalf of the Mathematical Association of America when they formed a publishing partnership. The journal generally releases an issue every month except July and August.
