Matt Hauske received his Ph.D. in Cinema and Media Studies from the University of Chicago in 2015.  His research focuses on midcentury American cinema, with a particular emphasis on the ways the Hollywood Western influenced and interacted with broader trends in material culture, leisure, and politics. He is also interested in examining cinema and other cultural forms through the lenses of critical theory, psychoanalysis, political economy, settler colonialism, and ecology. He has taught courses in film history, film theory, and communication at the University of Chicago, DePaul University, Loyola University Chicago, and Colby College.
