Elected co-chair of Horror Studies SIG at SCMS

At the annual meeting of the Horror Studies Scholarly Interest Group held as part of the Society for Cinema and Media Studies conference in Seattle, I was one of two new co-chairs elected to replace outgoing founding co-chairs Allison Whitney (Texas Tech) and Murray Leeder (Calgary).

I am happy to report that I'll be joining the newly elected Ashley R. Smith (Northwestern), along with graduate student representative Sonia Lupher (Pittsburgh) and founding co-chair Adam Hart (Pittsburgh).

I would like to express my deepest thanks to the SIG members for voting me in. I'm sincerely grateful and cannot wait to get started.
