  • Transgender Representation on American Narrative Television from 2004-2014
    TRANSJACKING TELEVISION: TRANSGENDER REPRESENTATION ON AMERICAN NARRATIVE TELEVISION FROM 2004-2014 A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by Kelly K. Ryan May 2021 Examining Committee Members: Jan Fernback, Advisory Chair, Media and Communication Nancy Morris, Media and Communication Fabienne Darling-Wolf, Media and Communication Ron Becker, External Member, Miami University ABSTRACT This study considers the case of representation of transgender people and issues on American fictional television from 2004 to 2014, a period which represents a steady surge in transgender television characters relative to what came before, and prefigures a more recent burgeoning of transgender characters since 2014. The study thus positions the period of analysis as an historical period in the changing representation of transgender characters. A discourse analysis is employed that not only assesses the way that transgender characters have been represented, but contextualizes American fictional television depictions of transgender people within the broader sociopolitical landscape in which those depictions have emerged and which they likely inform. Television representations and the social milieu in which they are situated are considered as parallel, mutually informing discourses, including the ways in which those representations have been engaged discursively through reviews, news coverage and, in some cases, blogs. ii To Desmond, Oonagh and Eamonn For everything. And to my mother, Elaine Keisling, Who would have read the whole thing. iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Throughout the research and writing of this dissertation, I have received a great deal of support and assistance, and therefore offer many thanks. To my Dissertation Chair, Jan Fernback, whose feedback on my writing and continued support and encouragement were invaluable to the completion of this project.

Arriving to Tokyo it feels no different, and were it not for the alien neon lettering at junctions, we could have been in any city of the world. “It reminds me of China” Fanfan mutters at a time I was feeling the same. It is at this point where I realize just how little I know about Japan. My first impressions? It’s not as grainy as Akira Kurosawa movies, and nowhere near as animated as Manga or Studio Ghibli productions. This is how I know Japan; through movies and animation, with samurai and smiling eyes. I would soon go on to know and love Japan for many other reasons, expected and unexpected during our 2 week JR pass journeys.

  • Boy Band Inspires Fans but the Lure of the Theater Eventually Led Her to Study Drama at Boston University
    ARAB TIMES, MONDAY, MAY 3, 2021 NEWS/FEATURES 13 People & Places Obits Author Matthews dead Oscar-winning actress Dukakis dies aged 89 MAPLEWOOD, NJ, May 2, (AP): Olympia Duka- kis, the veteran stage and screen actor whose fl air for maternal roles helped her win an Oscar as Cher’s mother in the romantic comedy “Moonstruck,” has died. She was 89. Dukakis died Saturday morning in her home in New York City, according to Allison Levy, her agent at In- novative Artists. A cause of death was not immedi- ately released, but her family said in a statement that she had been in failing health for months. Dukakis won her Oscar through a surprising chain of circumstances, beginning with author Nora Ephron’s recommendation that she play Meryl Streep’s mother in the fi lm version of Ephron’s book “Heartburn.” Du- kakis got the role, but her scenes were cut from the fi lm. To make it up to her, director Mike Nichols cast her in his hit play “Social Se- curity.” Director Norman Jew- ison saw her in that role and cast her in “Moonstruck.” Dukakis won the Oscar for best supporting actress and Cher took home the trophy for best actress. She referred to her 1988 win as “the year of the Dukakii” because it was also the year Massachusetts Gov. Michael Dukakis Dukakis, her cousin, was the Democratic Party’s presiden- tial nominee. At the ceremony, she held her Oscar high over her head and called out: “OK, Michael, let’s go!” Members of the Chinese music group Produce Pandas, (from left), Husky, Otter, Mr 17, Cass, and DING strike a pose while practicing dance choreography dur- In 1989, her Oscar statuette was stolen from Duka- ing rehearsals in Beijing, April 15, 2021.

  • 2013 ANNUAL REPORT the Art of Behaving Effectively Is Behaving As If Everything We Do Ma Ers—Because We Can’T Know What Will Change the Future
    CELEBRATING 40 YEARS FORWOMEN.ORG 402013 ANNUAL REPORT The art of behaving effectively is behaving as if everything we do ma ers—because we can’t know what will change the future. “ -Gloria Steinem” MISSION STATEMENT The Ms. Foundation for Women builds women’s collective power to realize a nation of justice for all. For forty years, the Ms. Foundation for Women has led the charge for women’s rights. We were at the frontlines in 1973 and continue to fight for equality, justice and freedom today. 2013 Annual Report • 1 DEAR FRIENDS: The Ms. Foundation for Women is celebrating 40 years of work on behalf of women. We have been at the forefront of the women’s movement and are poised to lead the movement even further into the future. The moment is now, and it is your generosity and involvement that makes this work possible. In the 2012 presidential election, women made the difference in the direction of our country. Fiy-three percent of balloted voters were women. During his State of the Union address, President Obama openly stated what we have long known: “I believe when women succeed, America succeeds.” The Ms. Foundation for Women impacted the women’s movement in 2013 by supporting grassroots women’s organizations that do the cuing-edge work no one else is funding and by going aer issues that no one else is touching. Among developed nations, the United States ranks 47th for gender equality. That shameful international ranking is based on access to jobs, education levels, political representation and life expectancy.
