Worked with Ann Danylkiw
on the documentary film she is producing, “The 21-Hour Experiment.” She is a
British journalist and PhD student. I gave her an interview for her film last
summer, and made suggestions about her project. I am continuing to work with
her as she works on her film and graduate degree. Here is a link to her project
and to the group she is working with.

Consultant for "Work, Hallowed Be
Thy Name!": an "essayistic-satirical docu-fiction"
film directed by Konstantin Faigle, a well known German documentary film
maker. He and his film crew traveled to the University of Iowa from Germany in
the second week of Nov. 2010. I consulted with him about the film, arranged
interviews with students on campus, and gave my own presentation/interview
based on my ongoing research on this topic. My next book will be based on this
subject.

6. Non-print “publications” of my work:
I have always believed that one of the most
important parts of my scholarship is sharing it with the general public. To
that end, I have been very active over the years, appearing on various TV,
radio shows, etc.— such as the Today Show, national network evening news
programs, Charlie Rose’s Program—
Newsweek, The New York Times, Boston Globe, LA Times, etc. have reported on
my work. However, acting on the advice of deans who do not share my opinion, I have long since given up listing the various
Newspaper, Magazine, TV and radio “appearances.” If anyone cares to see the
list of such efforts, I will be happy to provide it.
