Snežana Đenić (Serbian Cyrillic: Снежана Ђенић; born 1962) is a Serbian historian. She has written several works on the local history of Užice and the Zlatibor region.

Early life and career edit

Đenić was born in Čajetina, in what was then the People's Republic of Serbia in the Federal People's Republic of Yugoslavia. She graduated from the University of Belgrade Faculty of Philosophy with a degree in history.[1]

Historian edit

As of 2016, Đenić had written eleven books on Užice and Zlatibor, as well as overseeing more than thirty television programs on the history of the region. She has been the director of the Ljubiša R. Đenić library in Čajetina (named after her grandfather) since 2005.[2]

She has been awarded the prestigious Zlatna Značka (English: Golden Badge) by the Cultural and Educational Association of Serbia and the Office of the Government of Serbia for Co-operation with the Diaspora and Serbs in the region, operating under the ministry of culture and information.[3]

Political activities edit

Đenić appeared in the fifth position on a combined electoral list of Healthy Serbia (Zdrava Srbija, ZS) and Better Serbia (Bolja Srbija, BS) in the 2020 Serbian parliamentary election, apparently as a non-party candidate.[4] The list did not cross the electoral threshold to win representation in the national assembly.
