Lauren Herold, PhD, and Steph Herold, MPH, ask why the increased visibility of abortion on television doesn't equal progress
Lauren Herold is a Visiting Assistant Professor of Critical Identity Studies at Beloit College. Her work explores community media, television history, and feminist and LGBTQ cultural production. Herold’s dissertation considers 1970s-1990s public access TV programming made by and for LGBTQ people as a televisual archive that offers insight into the structures of feeling circulating in queer communities. She holds a PhD in Screen Cultures from Northwestern University. For more information about her work, visit her website https://www.lcherold.com/.
