PRODUCTION BIOS LEWIS CHESLER (Executive
‘BEST CHRISTMAS PARTY EVER’ PRODUCTION BIOS LEWIS CHESLER (Executive Producer) – Lewis Chesler is one of the first producers of material for the alternative television market and since has produced TV shows that stretch the boundaries of the medium beyond the conventional programming of the standard broadcasters. In a field where innovation is often discouraged, Chesler has nonetheless managed extraordinary success. He is now known for Independent features, art action pieces and award winning action adventure pieces for the family. A native of Cleveland, Chesler attended Amherst College, studying cultural history and graduating with highest honors after writing his thesis on television’s impact on political consciousness in the mass society. He worked his way through college, spending summers in the Cleveland steel mills and his winter vacations working on merchant vessels, traveling around the world. Following college, he joined the Peace Corps. In the mid-70’s, Chesler became artistic director of the Long Beach Performing Arts Centre. He produced a series of plays there, starring, among others, Stockard Channing, Jill Clayburgh, Stacey Keach, James Whitmore and Eddie Albert. He also booked the opera house, the sports arena, two theaters and the rock concert forum. He started his television career with a series of variety shows and “The Hitchhiker” series for HBO. Chesler conceived the show, its style, look and direction and brought together the main creative elements, including Academy Award®-nominated writers and actors and internationally prominent directors. One of the most enduring aspects of Chesler’s efforts during “The Hitchhiker” was the encouragement of industry acceptance of cable programming as a venue to showcase top film directors and actors such as Paul Verhoeven, Phillip Noyce, Wayne Wang, Willem Dafoe, Klaus Kinski, Kirstie Alley and Helen Hunt.

Using Film to Teach Psychology: a Resource of Film Study Guides
USING FILM TO TEACH PSYCHOLOGY: A RESOURCE OF FILM STUDY GUIDES Elizabeth M. Nelson, Christian Brothers University (2002 Instructional Resource Award Recipient) Overview This 106-page resource offers instructors tools for using films to enhance their instruction. Student evaluations consistently indicate that films help them learn the topics, provide an alternative to traditional lectures, and give them a different point of view. However, students also say they do not like to view films if they do not understand the relevancy of the film to the course material. This resource gives teachers of psychology additional tools for using film, such as tested study guides, sample syllabi, student papers, references, and Internet resources. The film study guides contained in this resource have been used in a variety of psychology classes, and may be applicable to a variety of other courses.
