Faculty Directory

The SMPA faculty are leading the way on contemporary issues and shaping the future of communication and technology. Some counsel foreign countries and American policymakers on today's communication issues. Others consult with international and U.S. news syndicates, analyze news content, and train private industry and government officials for media appearances. Still more write scripts and produce award-winning documentaries and films. The school also recruits top Washington, D.C. professionals to serve as adjunct faculty. These distinguished professionals, correspondents, producers, and political advisors regularly support SMPA by teaching courses and advising students.
