Teacher / Lecturer

I enjoy sharing my enthusiasm for film and cultural history with audiences of all kinds, from general-interest learners to students ranging from high school to graduate school. 
 
I have developed a number of individual talks and clip shows for adult learners, which can be tailored for specific groups or audiences. Contact me for booking details. Topics include the following (click links for one-sheet descriptions and tech requirements):

• Beyond Grumps and Spinsters: American Movies Take on Aging

• Sex, Jews and Videotape:  What the Movies Reveal About Jewish Sexuality

• What’s Not to Like? Hollywood’s Love Affair with Jewish Humor

  In Washington DC, Woody Allen appears to be spying on my lecture notes.
