The Cross-Country/Cross-Class Drives of Don Draper/Dick Whitman: Examining Mad Men’S Hobo Narrative
Journal of Working-Class Studies Volume 2 Issue 1, 2017 Forsberg The Cross-Country/Cross-Class Drives of Don Draper/Dick Whitman: Examining Mad Men’s Hobo Narrative Jennifer Hagen Forsberg, Clemson University Abstract This article examines how the critically acclaimed television show Mad Men (2007- 2015) sells romanticized working-class representations to middle-class audiences, including contemporary cable subscribers. The television drama’s lead protagonist, Don Draper, exhibits class performatively in his assumed identity as a Madison Avenue ad executive, which is in constant conflict with his hobo-driven born identity of Dick Whitman. To fully examine Draper/Whitman’s cross-class tensions, I draw on the American literary form of the hobo narrative, which issues agency to the hobo figure but overlooks the material conditions of homelessness. I argue that the hobo narrative becomes a predominant but overlooked aspect of Mad Men’s period presentation, specifically one that is used as a technique for self-making and self- marketing white masculinity in twenty-first century U.S. cultural productions. Keywords Cross-class tensions; television; working-class representations The critically acclaimed television drama Mad Men (2007-2015) ended its seventh and final season in May 2015. The series covered the cultural and historical period of March 1960 to November 1970, and followed advertising executive Don Draper and his colleagues on Madison Avenue in New York City. As a text that shows the political dynamism of the mid-century to a twenty-first century audience, Mad Men has wide-ranging interpretations across critical camps. For example, in ‘Selling Nostalgia: Mad Men, Postmodernism and Neoliberalism,’ Deborah Tudor suggests that the show offers commitments to individualism through a ‘neoliberal discourse of style’ which stages provocative constructions of reality (2012, p. -

The Female Brain
THE FEMALE BRAIN A film by Whitney Cummings Starring Whitney Cummings, Toby Kebbell, Beanie Feldstein, Cecily Strong, Sofia Vergara, Deon Cole, Blake Griffin, Lucy Punch and James Marsden 2017 Los Angeles Film Festival World Premiere Saturday, June 17th at 5:45PM | Arclight Culver City Theatre 2 – World Premiere Sunday, June 18th at 10:00 AM | Culver Theatre 8 – Press & Industry Screening Running Time: 98 minutes Press Contact: The DDA Group [email protected] [email protected] SYNOPSIS A romantic ensemble comedy about modern day relationships, The Female Brain provides insight into the complexities of the male vs female brain at varying stages of love: whether it’s finding the right romantic balance; parenting; expressing emotion; or simply admitting shortcomings when a bathroom remodel goes awry. In the end, detached researcher Dr. Brizendine has to admit that her study of the brain might have a bias that she did not initially consider. DIRECTOR WHITNEY CUMMINGS Q&A with Writer/Director Whitney Cummings Tell us about the concept and story behind The Female Brain. How did the idea/project come to you? I read the book and was enthralled by all the science of it. I was fascinated by all the things I learned about not only female brains, but the brain in general. We all have this incredibly powerful machine in our skulls making lots of decisions without us, and we know next to nothing about it! I was shocked that they don’t teach us about our brains in school. I became obsessed with how our primordial, reptilian brains sabotage our modern relationships. -

“Women Usually Want to Please”: A Linguistic Analysis of Femininity and Power in Mad Men by Stephanie Stoneback A thesis presented for the B.A. degree with Honors in The Department of English University of Michigan Winter 2019 © 2019 Stephanie Christine Stoneback To my mom. Acknowledgments First of all, I would like to thank my thesis advisor, Anne Curzan, for her unwavering support, guidance, and understanding throughout this process. Anne, without your encouragement, listening ear, criticism, and patience, I would have never been able to produce such exciting analysis that I am proud of. To me, you embody what it means to be a powerful woman and you are such an inspiration as I complete my undergraduate work and enter a new phase of life. Thank you so much for that. Next, I must thank our program director, Adela Pinch, for her helpful tips and constant reminders that everything was going to be okay. Adela, in many ways, you have shaped my education as an English major at the University of Michigan—you taught me the Introduction to Literary Studies course, a course on Jane Austen, and both semesters of Thesis Writing. Thank you so much for the years of engaged learning, critical thinking, and community building. I would also like to thank some of the staff members of the New England Literature Program, who helped instill in me a confidence in my writing and in my self that I never knew I was capable of. Aric Knuth, Ryan Babbitt, Mark Gindi, Maya West, and Kristin Gilger, each of you had a distinct and lasting impact on me, in some unspoken and perhaps sacred ways. -
