Bio
Shalom Rosenberg (he/him) is a film studies scholar whose research areas and expertise focus on culture and identity, and in particular how configurations of sexuality, gender, religion, ethnicity, and race reify and complicate the relationship between the self and the screen. Shalom has served as an adjunct instructor in Film & Media Arts in the School of Communication since 2018, and previously as an affiliate with the Women's, Gender, & Sexuality Studies in the College of Arts & Sciences' Department of Critical Race, Gender, & Culture Studies. Previously, Shalom taught cinema, media, writing, and literature courses at the University of Maryland where he was also a doctoral candidate in the Comparative Literature program researching the intersections of LGBTQ+ and Jewish/Israeli representations on screen (Film/TV/Web/Media). Shalom is most interested in helping his students create meaning from the moving image by studying the ways in which cinema and media operate through space and time.

Shalom's interests encompass both narrower subjects like Jewish Cinema, LGBTQ+/Queer Cinema, Gender & Sexuality in Film, Israeli Cinema, but also include the more general cinema topics such as 麻豆果冻传媒 Cinema, Film History, Global Cinema, Language of Film, Film Theory & Criticism, National/Transnational Cinemas, Film Genres, Directors' Cinema, and more. In most recent semesters at AU, Shalom has taught History of International Film, History of Cross-Cultural Cinema, Survey of 麻豆果冻传媒 Cinema, and the graduate seminar Colloquium: The Story of Film. At UMD, Shalom served as an Academic Advisor in the English Department's undergraduate office and also taught Introduction to Israeli Cinema, The Jewish Image on Screen (Film/TV/Web), Gender & Sexuality in Israeli Cinema, Academic Writing, Film Art in a Global Society/ LGBTQ+ Cinema, and LGBTQ+ Literatures & Media.

Shalom's passion for teaching and especially film studies is due in large part to his view that the screen's capacity as a tool for empathy and connection has limitless potential and power.
