Myrna Kagan is the wife of Donald Kagan, a distinguished ancient Greek historian and Yale University professor emeritus, whom she married in 1958. She is the mother of two sons: Frederick Kagan, a military historian and senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, and Robert Kagan, a foreign policy commentator and historian. As part of the influential Kagan family in neoconservative intellectual circles, she has maintained a relatively private life, with limited public information available about her personal or professional endeavors. The family's connections extend to broader networks, including through marriage to figures like Kimberly Kagan and political appointees such as Victoria Nuland. While Donald Kagan's career focused on classical studies and conservative advocacy, including co-founding the National Endowment for Democracy, Myrna Kagan's role appears supportive within the family dynamic. The Kagans resided primarily in New Haven, Connecticut, during Donald's tenure at Yale.
