Name | Paula Hunt |
Affiliation | |
Title | Doctoral candidate, University of Missouri |
Bio | After 20 years in the media business – film, television, the Internet, newspapers, and magazines – I decided to head back to school to earn my Ph.D. |
Interests | My work seeks to understand how people used media and how media has been used as force for social change. In particular, I am interested in understanding the many ways in which media has informed the history of the United States: what is remembered, what is not remembered, and what is misremembered. |
Projects | My dissertation applies digital mapping to explore and understand the lived experience of American Anti-Slavery Society members and their publishing enterprise in New York City from 1833-1840. |
