About
Lindsay H. Garrison is a doctoral candidate in Media and Cultural Studies at the University of Wisconsin – Madison. Her research interests include television and new media industries, theories of stardom and celebrity, and qualitative audience studies. Her dissertation, T(w)eens, Screens, and Celebrity Machines: Understanding Stardom in Youth Media Culture, explores the ways in which young stars – as transmedia branding strategies and discursive spaces for the negotiation of cultural hierarchies – mediate the relationship between teen/tweens identity practices and the economic adaptations of media conglomerates. She is a coordinating editor for The Velvet Light Trap and a founding contributing editor for the collectively-authored media studies blog, Antenna: Responses to Media and Culture. Garrison also currently serves as the Graduate Student Representative to the Society for Cinema and Media Studies' (SCMS) Board of Directors.
