A native of New York City, Levine attended Colgate University for his BA and Princeton University for his PhD. As a faculty member at SUNY Stony Brook (1966-1981), he played an important role in aiding refugee scholars from Latin American dictatorships in addition to his work for the Conference on Latin American History and the Columbia University Seminar on Brazil.
