艾梅埃德蒙森

Dr. 艾梅埃德蒙森 is a professor in media law and journalism history with a particular focus on civil-rights related libel law, critical race theory and free expression. She also teaches data journalism using the techniques of Investigative Reporters and Editors (IRE) and has traveled to Kenya, 中国, 哈萨克斯坦, India and Germany to lead workshops for journalists and journalism educators.

She considers herself a third generation newspaperman. Her grandfather published and edited the 油机 back home in Louisiana and her uncle was a journalist. In the dozen years she worked in newsrooms around the country, she’s covered just about every beat – cops, 法院, 政治, 教育, 贫困, 特性, sports and special projects. She continues her journalism in her research and writing about media and is honored to educate the next generation of truth tellers.

她的书, In 沙利文’s Shadow, The Use and Abuse of Libel Law During the Long Civil Rights Struggle, was published by University of Massachusetts Press in 2019. The book was a finalist for the Frank Luther Mott/Kappa Tau Alpha Research Award for the best book on journalism and mass communication based on original research. It also was runner up for the Association for Education in 新闻 and Mass Communication History Division Book Award.

她获得了博士学位.D. from the University of Missouri School of 新闻 (2008), Master of Arts from the University of Memphis (1999) and her Bachelor of Arts from Louisiana State University Manship School of 新闻 (1990).

When she is not committing journalism or traveling to teach data journalism, she is working on her farm in the Appalachian foothills. She is interested in local food economies and sustainability. You can find her in her vegetable garden and hanging out with a herd of goats, two cattle dogs and a flock of chickens.
