Major Field: Russian History

Advisor: Donald J. Raleigh

Research Interests: My general interests include international relations and the mass
media.  My current research focuses on the representation of the United States in the
Soviet press, particularly during the era of detente.  I hope to shed light on the nature
of Soviet-American relations and the ways that the Soviet government envisioned the self
by projecting images of the other.
