A former U.S. diplomat with service in South Vietnam, Taiwan, and Washington, D.C., he received his doctorate in Far Eastern history from Georgetown University. At Penn State, Duiker has written extensively on the history of Vietnam and modern China, including the highly acclaimed Communist Road To Power In Vietnam, which was selected for a Choice Outstanding Academic Book Award in 1982-983 and 1996-1997. Other books are U.S. Containment Policy And The Conflict In Indochina, China And Vietnam: The Roots Of Conflict, Sacred War: Nationalism And Revolution In A Divided Vietnam, and HO CHI MINH, which was nominated for a Pulitzer Prize in 2001.

In 2002 the College of Liberal Arts honored him with an Emeritus Distinction Award.
