Marsha Gordon
We are so thrilled to work with author and professor Marsha Gordon.
Professor Gordon is a Film Studies professor at North Carolina State University who loves researching, writing, and speaking about American film and culture. I regularly introduce movies, moderate panels, make radio appearances, and lecture on an array of topics.
She is also the author of Film is Like a Battleground: Sam Fuller’s War Movies and Hollywood Ambitions: Celebrity in the Movie Age, and the co-editor of Learning with the Lights Off: A Reader in Educational Film and Screening Race in American Nontheatrical Film. She is the former editor of The Moving Image journal.
Professor Gordon has co-directed three short documentaries: Nesting (2020), about a bird’s nest and historical small-town American newspapers; All the Possibilities… (2019), about a single, extraordinary painting by Vernon Pratt; and Rendered Small (2017), about a unique collection of American Folk Art Buildings.
Professor Gordon has also given talks all over the United States as well as in London, Amsterdam, Vienna, and Prague. I’ve introduced films at the National Gallery of Art, the National Archives, the Museum of the Moving Image, the Hammer Museum, the Czech National Film Archive, the Austrian Film Museum, the North Carolina Museum of Art, and many other venues.
Her book Becoming the Ex-Wife: The Unconventional Life and Forgotten Writings of Ursula Parrott by University of California Press is forthcoming.
