CMCI Senior Lecturer and cultural historian Dr Harvey G. Cohen is back at the department this autumn after two years away on a Leverhulme Trust research grant. During his time away, his previous research projects on Film, Music history, Politics and other research interests have been published in several peer reviewed journals and academic publications. All set to release this December is his new book Who's In The Money? The Great Depression Musicals and Hollywood's New Deal which outlines the history of the Warner Brothers musicals during 1933 and their political, historical and cultural connections on and offscreen - with the newly-elected U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt and his New Deal. Harvey Cohen is currently working on his third book, which examines American music, business, gender and Christianity in the mid-20th century.
