传记

I am a Professor of Communication & Media at esball国际平台客户端 where I have taught courses on writing, 修辞, 媒体与文化, and filmmaking since 1988. For six years I served as Chair of the Communication & 媒体系. I have published five books, including The Lost Archive of Juma Sultan and the Aboriginal Music Society (Wesleyan University Press, 2012), The Wired Neighborhood (Yale Univ Press, 2001), and Rhetoric, Innovation, Technology (麻省理工学院出版社,1992).

我的纪录片, The Lost Archive of Juma Sultan (2006, http://vimeo.com/160784171) was supported by a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts. In 2015-16 my documentary film about a purported stop on the Underground Railroad in the 1840’s entitled The Trial of Horatio Hough (2015, http://vimeo.com/125483102) was screened at a variety of conferences and festivals including the 15th Annual Underground Railroad Public 历史 Conference in Troy, NY.

My work has received a variety of awards including the 2002 Rigo Award for outstanding lifetime achievement in the field of Technical Communication from the Association of Computing Machine SIGDOC conference, a 2002 Public Radio esball国际app Directors Award for his radio interview with North Country Public Radio, and the 1992 Graham Award for outstanding research at esball国际平台客户端.

My students have won awards for work done in my classes. In 2013 students in my journalism course were recognized by the National Broadcasting Society’s student organization for a video news feature they produced. In 2016 students in my advanced film course had their films chosen as official selections for a variety of regional, 国家, and inter国家 film festivals.
