I’m a graduate student at American University in Washington, DC.

I’m currently pursuing my Master of Arts in American’s Literature, Culture, and Technology program. My research focuses on the cultural, political, and technological aspects of American films and filmgoing practices. In an increasingly convergent mediascape, my scholarship seeks to understand why so many of us love to go to the movies.

Before graduate school, I ran operations for startups like UrbanStems and OurStreets in Washington, DC and New York City. See my bio or CV for specifics.

Say hey! I’m @ptklein on most major social networks and paul(at)ptklein(dot)com.
