The marriage was inevitable.  Artists in love with science fiction and fantasy fell head over heels for the endless possibilities of computer graphics software.  Gaming, movie special effects, web sites and more offered fertile ground for a never ending galaxy of space ships and aliens, monsters and superheroes.

Adam Rote's evolution was typical.  Fascinated with this world of far-reaching imagination, he quickly jumped into using early graphics software, often as a beta tester.  He moved into video post-production and gaming after earning a degree in computer graphic design.  A lead artist for game giant Interplay Productions, he worked on projects such Star Fleet Academy.  Today, he is creating top-secret games for Microsoft's new Xbox technology.

Rote loves the challenge of creating 3D models, matte backgrounds, textures and lighting.  He also creates titles and special effects for film and video, teaching his students to work together to realize their creative dreams.  "These programs open up another creative outlet for film students," he says.  "It's like food to me," he says of the artistic challenge.  And for his students, it adds "extra spice to their cooking," or perhaps, extraterrestrial spice.

Research Interests:

Complex and Hypercomplex Analysis

Complex Analysis is a classical branch of mathematics, having its roots in late 18th and early 19th centuries, which investigates functions of one and several complex variables. It has applications in many branches of mathematics, including Number Theory and Applied Mathematics, as well as in physics, including Hydrodynamics, Thermodynamics, Electrical Engineering, and Quantum Physics.

Clifford Analysis is the study of Dirac and Dirac type operators in Analysis and Geometry, together with their applications. In 3 and 4 dimensions Clifford Analysis is referred to as Quaternionic Analysis. Furthermore, methods and tools of Clifford Analysis are extended to the field of Hypercomplex Analysis.

Algebraic Computational Methods in Geometric and Physics PDEs

In recent years, techniques from computational algebra have become important to render effective general results in the theory of Partial Differential Equations. My research is following the work of D.C. Struppa, I. Sabadini, F. Colombo, F. Sommen, etc., authors which have shown how these tools can be used to discover and identify important properties of several systems of interest, such as the Cauchy-Fueter, the Mosil-Theodorescu, the Maxwell, the Proca system, as well as the systems which naturally arise from the work of the Belgian school of Brackx, Delanghe and Sommen.

Equivariant Localization Techniques in Topological Quantum Field Theory

Topological Quantum Field Theories (TQFT) emerged in the late 1980s as part of the renewed relationship between differential geometry/topology and physics. In the 1990s, developments in TQFT gave unexpected results in differential topology and symplectic and algebraic geometry. One striking feature of physicists' approach to TQFT is the use of mathematically non-rigorous Feynman path integrals to produce new topological invariants of manifolds, which appear as the physical observables of the TQFT. My work makes use of the Mathai--Quillen formalism in the context of Equivariant Cohomology, in order to study properties of TQFTs (e.g. Donaldson--Witten and Seiberg--Witten generating functions) and relations between them.

Foundations of Geometry

I am interested mostly in the Hilbertian axiomatic approach to Geometry. Far from being an expert in this field, I am studying especially the constructions of Euclidean and non-Euclidean geometries using purely geometric axioms, without using numbers, distances, and/or continuity properties.

Mathematics and Physics Education

My interests lie in methodological aspects of introducing research ideas and modern results in Mathematics and Physics to undergraduate students and future teachers. My goal is to raise scientific awareness and interest among college and university students, and to prepare them for active research.

Professor Alex Bay

When I began teaching at Chapman University in August 2006, I had an established research trajectory focusing on the history of public health in Japan. My first book, Beriberi in Modern Japan, published in December, 2012, by the University of Rochester Press as part of the Rochester Studies in Medical History, grew out of my Stanford PhD dissertation. I produced an initial articulation of this project for the refereed journal Japan Review: Journal of the International Research Center for Japanese Studies. My article, “Beriberi, Military Medicine, and Medical Authority in Prewar Japan,” appeared in the fall 2008 issue. I spent the 2008-2009 academic year in Japan during which a Japan Society for the Promotion of Science Postdoctoral Fellowship funded further research for and the writing of my book. In addition to journal articles and book monographs, I have presented original research at the annual meetings of the Association for Asian Studies, the History of Science Society, East Asian Science, Technology and Society, and the Japan Society for the History of Medicine. I have also written book reviews for The Pacific Circle, the Journal of the Japanese Society for the History of Medicine, First World War Studies, East Asian Science, Technology and Society: An International Journal, and The Journal of Asian Studies, and have acted as an peer reviewer for East Asian Science, Technology and Society: An International Journal.

During the summer of 2010, I began initial work on second project concerning the history of the environmental impact on digestive system disorders. I presented early versions of this study at the Association for Asian Studies annual meeting, the Science, Technology, and Medicine in East Asia: Policy, Practice, and Implications in a Global Context conferencAlex Bay kickboxinge at The Ohio State University and at a University of North Carolina Asian Studies Program lecture series in 2011. Based on these conference presentations and academic talks, an editor of Historia Scientiarum, the English-language journal for the History of Science Society of Japan, asked me to contribute to a special issue dedicated to the history of Japanese medical history. The editor now has my article draft. I received a summer 2012 Travel/Research Grant from the D. Kim Foundation for the History of Science in East Asia to further research this topic. Tentatively entitled Nation from the Bottom Up: Disease, Toilets and Waste Management in Modern Japan, this project concerns the history of environmental hygiene and digestive-system diseases including dysentery, typhoid fever, hemorrhoids and parasite-diseases like schistosomiasis as well as the technology of waste-management in Japan from 1900 to 1980.

Andy Erish’s career spans various facets of film and television production for the last 30 years including time as a guest lecturer at the Los Angeles Film Studies Center since 1998. He also authored Col. William N. Selig: The Man Who Invented Hollywood, which was recently accepted for publication by the University of Texas Press.

A passionate and dedicated teacher, Erish loves “exposing students to the masterpieces from film history and seeing how these inspire their work”. He strongly believes that films of the past should influence and shape the filmmakers of tomorrow and pushes his students to actively watch all kinds of films, including contemporary, classic, and foreign films. “I long for a return of quality in cinema that's been missing for thirty years,” he says. “Chapman's students are our hope.”

Growing up in Miami, Andrew Lane knew there was only one thing he ever wanted to do in life: Make movies. "I simply love telling stories — and all that that entails. Collaborating with others to create a singular vision. Putting a story up on the screen. Sitting in the audience, watching people actually enjoy something I created, or having them walk up to me on the street and comment on a film I made--it's a great feeling."

While studying mass communications at the University of Miami, Lane worked part time making educational and industrial movies, which served as his entrée into the Miami filmmaking community. Over the years, Lane has produced more than 25 feature films and movies for television, including Valley Girl, Night of the Comet and Jake Speed. He wrote part or all of most of those titles as well as having written for other producers and studios. Lane also directed numerous films including MGM's Mortal Passions (winner at Deauville and a Sundance competition entry), Lonely Hearts and original movies for CBS and Showtime.

Of filmmakers, Lane explains, "This is what we do. It's like we got the disease. We're stuck. While it's sometimes more pain than pleasure, there was nothing else I ever considered doing."

Dodge College Course: Production Workshop I

Filmmaking is “a profound opportunity to express ourselves at the deepest level and nourish the cultural soul,” says Andrew Wagner. After graduating from AFI, Wagner utilized his diverse talents to embark on a career in independent filmmaking. He reached “the turning point” in his career when he wrote, directed, and produced the feature  The Talent Given Us, which played at the Sundance Film Festival in 2005, and after a championing review from Roger Ebert in the New York Times, went on to play in over 30 cities. His next film, Starting Out in the Evening, premiered at Sundance in competition - an experience which Wagner describes as “amazing.”

Today, Wagner encourages his students to be wholly devoted to their storytelling. “Seek depth and quality in your work; demand from yourself the strength to overcome resistance” he says. “Commit to telling stories you feel passionately about, and you “always have a good answer when times are hard and you ask yourself why you chose such a challenging career.”

Anna Waterhouse was given her first big break when TriStar bought her screenplay and she was snapped up to work on a team of writers for the feature, Power Play. Shortly after, Robert Towne read one of her scripts and hired her to work as a consultant. “I like fixing broken scripts,” Waterhouse says, and so she continued to assist Towne, producer James Hart, and many others sort through and mend their scripts’ structural problems. Her writing can be seen in such films as Without Limits, The Secret Garden, and Mission: Impossible II. She recently finished work on the documentary, On the Shoulders of Giants.

“There’s a lot of satisfaction in helping others create (and avoid pitfalls along the way). My students’ enthusiasm brings out the mom in me – though I’m more the ‘tough love’ kind!” she jokes. “What everyone says is true: if you don’t love it, if you aren’t willing to sacrifice, if you don’t think you have anything to learn, or if you’re easily discouraged, hurt, or offended, please get into another line of work!”

I received my doctorate in Counseling Psychology and Sociology from Washington State University in 1981.  My scholarship, at that time, focused on criminology, in particular battered women and children.  I was one of three nationally recognized experts in the burgeoning field of domestic violence, teaching at San Jose State University and Eastern Kentucky University.  In 1994, I returned to college entering The University of Texas at Austin earning a second doctorate in Curriculum and Instruction and Qualitative Methodology.  My scholarship focused on desegregation, in particular the voices of African American teachers who were deeply involved in the civil rights movement to overturn segregation in the United States.

My scholarship has a consistent theme during my academic life with a focus on race, class, gender, and sexual identity.  I have published books, book chapters, journal articles, and given presentations at international, national, and local conferences.  I am committed to enacting social justice and equality of opportunity for those people who remain on the margins. 

I am a member of the American Educational Research Association and have held several appointed and elected offices including the Ethics Committee and Chairperson of the Queer Studies Special Interest Group.  I am also a member of the Curriculum Theorizing Conference, the International Association for the Advancement of Curriculum Studies, and the American Association for the Advancement of Curriculum Studies.

Scholarly Research Interests:

My research interests have remained consistent over my academic career focusing on race/ethnicity, class, gender, and sexual identity.  My current research engages with questions of identity, both in schools and through historical analysis of archival data.  The problematizing of school culture for LGBTQ students and teachers is critical to address through research and scholarship, particularly for undocumented queer students of color.  My second area of scholarship examines the social construction of identity, specifically lesbian identity, through analysis of archival documents  such as photographs, journals, letters, and postcards.

He has appeared on numerous new music festivals, including Other Minds, Hear Now, MicroFest, Jacaranda, and In Frequency.

As a composer, Aron focuses on works for the beginning and intermediate pianist, as well as concert works involving electronics alone and electronics with acoustic instruments.

Not everyone can say they've lived out their dream as a rock and roll singer. Barbara Doyle is one of the few, following her passion for music, first as a band member and later as an assistant for a stage lighting production company. Barbara wasn't hired based on her "rock and roll" outfit, however, but because she has a talent for setting the stage and painting a picture for storytelling.

Growing up Barbara knew she wanted to tell stories, spending most of her time wrapped up in novels. These days, Barbara is working on her own book, a guide to surviving productions, helping people navigate their way through the business and political side of production in the film industry. Her advice comes from experience, and a career that has taken her from starting out at a communications company, jumping head-first into the music industry, making her mark as a production consultant, and now teaching creative producing and leading the undergraduate film division in Dodge College.

Barbara believes that "any time you make a plan, chances are that's not where you're going to be in the end." Instead, "it's important to find out not only what you're good at, but what you enjoy and once people see that, your plan starts to develop on its own."

Brad Buckner has worked in television for over 34 years as both a writer and producer. He’s had a lot of incredible experiences—“but a stand out was at the very beginning, when I produced my first show at Norman Lear’s production company. [It was] truly a 24/7 commitment, working without a net... I’d barely staffed on a show before I was in charge of one!”

Today, Buckner enjoys helping students tackle their writing head-on. “I love it when students get excited about the work,” he says. He encourages his students to keep writing and to always share their work and get feedback from both their peers and professors. “Grappling with a stubborn scene is exactly what you do in the real world, and watching scripts transform is amazing. That’s why I teach.”

Ms. Neblett began her career in 1964, at the age of eighteen, as a soloist with the Roger Wagner Chorale, making her professional debut at Carnegie Hall in Handel's Oratorio Esther.  That same year, Ms. Neblett also appeared as the Angel in Respighi's Laud to the Nativity at the Los Angeles Music Center.  From 1965 to 1969, under the guidance of impresario Sol Hurok, Ms. Neblett toured the world performing recitals, oratorio and symphonic concerts.

Ms. Neblett made her operatic debut in 1969 with the New York City Opera as Musetta, in La Boheme.  Amidst huge acclaim, she performed over twenty-five leading roles with the company over the next five years.  Critical triumphs included the dual roles of Margherita and Helen of Troy in Boito's Mefistofele.  Her performance of Korngold's Die Tote Stadt was so successful that it was subsequently recorded with the renowned Erich Leinsdorf conducting, and won a number of coveted awards, including a Grammy in 1975.

Ms. Neblett's signature roles include Puccini's Tosca as well as Minnie in The Girl of the Golden West.  In 1976 she made her debut at the Lyric Opera of Chicago as Tosca with Luciano Pavarotti, and has sung this role more that 400 times.  Ms. Neblett was invited to sing Minnie with Placido Domingo for Queen Elizabeth's 25th Jubilee Celebration at Covent Garden, which was filmed live as well as recorded.  Ms. Neblett made her Metropolitan Opera debut in 1979 as Senta in Jen-Pierre Ponelle's production of Der Fliegender Holländer, conducted by James Levine.  Throughout her career, Ms. Neblett sang regularly with the Met in productions such as Tosca, Don Giovanni, Manon Lescaut, Un Ballo in Maschera, Falstaff, and La Fanciulla del West.  In the 1993-94 opera season, she celebrated her 25th operatic anniversary by reviving her role as Musetta.

Throughout the world's major opera houses, Ms. Neblett has sung more than eighty-five leading roles and more than 100 oratorio and symphonic works.  Her recordings include Musetta in La Boheme for Angel/EMI, James Levine conducting; Minnie in La Fanciulla del West with Placido Domingo and Sherrill Milnes, Zubin Mehta conducting (DG); Marietta in Korngold's Die Tote Stadt, Erich Leinsdorf conducting (RCA); Mahler's Symphony No. 2 with Claudio Abbado and the Chicago Symphony Orchestra; and a special recording with Roger Wagner on Angel/EMI entitled Magnificat.  In celebration of the 100th anniversary of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, a compact disc was issued of Ms. Neblett singing Soprano No. 1 in Mahler's Symphony No. 8, James Levine conducting.  She is featured in "James Levine's 25th Anniversary" with the Metropolitan Opera, singing the role of Alice Ford in Falstaff with Giuseppe Taddei; an international television broadcast of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony with Maestro Carlo Maria Giulini; television broadcast from the Kennedy Center, A Tribute to George London, subsequently released on RCA.

A Public Relations Renaissance Man

Whether it’s managing rock bands, writing columns for local newspapers and magazines, winning awards for his photography, or producing his own plays, Professor Christopher Trela seems capable of doing it all. What makes this polymath even more extraordinary is how he relates it all back to his career in public relations.

“Public Relations was a lot different when I first started out,” says Trela, “because you didn’t have social media or the internet. Still, it gave me a sense of what it’s like to promote something and to be successful at it.”

Trela started his career in the punk rock scene. In 1977, he was the manager of Middle Class, whose album, Out of Vogue, went on to define the sound of hardcore punk. A few years later, he began promoting his own bands, for which he played drums and electric violin.

Since then, Trela has worked both as a journalist and photographer for newspapers and magazines throughout Southern California. He has had several successful columns, including the Newport Beach Independent’s, “Table for Two,” and Coast Magazine’s award-winning humor column, “A Slice of Life.” He’s also won awards for his photography at the Orange County Fair.

“It’s great having the perspective of a journalist when you’re doing PR,” says Trela, “because you know what journalists are looking for in a story. I also find that my photography makes me more valuable, because I can take photos of the places, businesses, and events I’m promoting.”

In addition to a successful career in journalism and photography, Trela spends a good portion of his time promoting the performing arts. He is the owner and president of Arts PR, the award-winning public relations agency whose clients include the Laguna Playhouse, the Long Beach Symphony Orchestra, and the Festival Ballet Theatre. He is also the founder of New Voices Playwrights, an organization dedicated to promoting and performing the work of new playwrights. Trela has written and produced several of his own plays, including the short play, Waiting for Merlot, a satirical take on Beckett’s Waiting for Godot, which was staged in New York. He also founded Table for Two Productions and Overture, two organizations that raise funds for the arts. For all this and more, Trela was named “Man of the Year in Theater” by the Daily Pilot in 1998.

“It’s fun working with arts organizations,” says Trela, “because they appreciate your work so much. You also get a little more attention from the media, because they know that arts organizations are non-profit and they’re usually promoting something that’s different and exciting.”

Trela began at Chapman as a guest speaker before becoming an adjunct faculty member. “Chapman has some great students,” he says, “and it’s exciting to see how they take the information they learn from me and apply it in the real world. It also reminds me that I have to be the best mentor I can to these students so that they can go out and achieve great things both now and when they graduate.”

My research investigates comprehension of language, semantic memory processes, and attentional limits related to cognitive resource demands.  I have a research liaison with an adult rehabilitation program for survivors of acquired brain injury where I examine how brain injury disrupts these comprehension processes.  I direct an active research program in my Cognitive Science lab at Chapman University, which provides many students with first-hand experience in psychological research activities and has supported several student-based research projects.  I also teach undergraduate courses in Statistics, Research Methods, Advanced Research Design, Perception and Cognitive Psychology.  Most of these courses are designed to offer students direct experience with the scientific method of psychological research and support student projects that reflect mastery of hypotheses testing and APA research reports.

A graduate of the Harvard Business School where he studied marketing, O'Connor believes, as his father, a direct marketing pioneer with Carter Hawley Hale's Sunset House, used to tell him—the future is in marketing.  "The marketing plan drives a business," he says, "but it's creativity that animates the marketing plan."

Bringing his creative marketing instincts to entertainment, O'Connor has also worked for HBO, several Internet start-ups and the American Film Institute.  Along the way, he launched Disney's American Teacher Awards, set up a national literacy promotion for The Disney Channel's 10th anniversary, and much more.

With so many choices available in the marketplace today, reaching the consumer depends on breaking free of traditional marketing techniques.  "You have to be creative," he says.  "You have to look at what's been done, and, put your own twist on it—break the rules. And you should have fun. This is the entertainment business, after all."

After all, as an audio designer and engineer, Pavelin's training keeps him well attuned to the slightest nuance of pitch, the faint stumble at the beginning of a sentence, the hesitant breath that leaves just enough room for an edit. With a master's touch, he makes hundreds of corporate and commercial projects sound better than they could in real time by working his digital magic.

An on-air personality as well as a composer (with an M.F.A. in Music, Composition and Technology emphasis), and a behind-the-scenes director, mixer and sound designer, Pavelin brings that same sensitivity to listening in the classroom. He teaches his students to hear what they never heard before and to find the power in sound that galvanizes or changes the shape of their film projects. But Pavelin also practices what he preaches, listening closely to the sounds of his students' interest—heading off boredom should it ever think to enter his classroom and putting real time to shame as his students are caught up in the sounds of Pavelin's magic.

A music and sound engineering student at the University of New Haven, the never-sit-still Leonard took every sound-related course and then started in on film courses when he encountered the teacher who would change his life. When that teacher moved on to Florida State, Leonard followed, first as a student and then as faculty supervisor of the post-production facility. Along the way, he worked on both student and feature films, moving up through the ranks from gaffer, boom operator, and transportation captain to first assistant director. Although young in years, Leonard is rich in experience, having worked on some 13 features, including the black comedy Rose's, which won a rave review in Variety. Most recently, he's been editing special feature material for DVDs produced by Lion's Gate/Artisan Entertainment. "I love the sense of community on film sets," says Leonard, "there's nothing better than having a whole bunch of creative people come together for a creative purpose." Not a bad way to live. It might even beat rock stardom.none/////////daniel-rhodes/our-faculty/daniel-rhodesChapman.eduslynch_BREI1329947119265content1_BREI13300447247071638986//none/////////daniel-wachs/our-faculty/daniel-wachsChapman.eduslynch_BREI1329947130178pwestenh13649231549571076243/our-faculty/files/larger-photos/faculty/Wachs_D.jpgsite://Chapman.edu/our-faculty/files/larger-photos/faculty/Wachs_D.jpgChapman.eduWachs_D.jpghttp://www.danielalfredwachs.com/Bertea Hall 128(714) 997-6914Conductor Daniel Alfred Wachs emerged on the international scene following his debut with the Mozarteum Orchestra of Salzburg, leading a world première by Toshio Hosokawa at the Grosses Festspielhaus. The Austrian press praised “Engaging, rhythmically inspired, precise in its execution, the “Mambo” was equal to a performance by Gustavo Dudamel and the Simón Bolívar Youth Orchestra!”  Wachs has been entrusted with preparing orchestras from Valery Gergiev to Vladimir Spivakov, and has served as Assistant Conductor to Osmo Vänskä at the Minnesota Orchestra and at the National Orchestra of France under Kurt Masur. He has served as cover conductor for the Houston Symphony and the Rotterdam Philharmonic.
 
Wachs has guest conducted Orange County’s Pacific Symphony, the Auckland Philharmonia, the National Orchestra (as part of the National Conducting Institute), the Sarasota Orchestra, the Fort Worth Symphony, Sinfonia Gulf Coast, the Monterey Symphony, the Spartanburg Philharmonic, and is a frequent guest conductor at New York City Ballet at Lincoln Center. Wachs has also served as assistant conductor at the Cincinnati Opera and for the French première of Bernstein’s Candide at the Théâtre du Châtelet, a co-production with La Scala and the English National Opera, directed by Robert Carsen.
 
A pianist as well as a conductor (“Wachs proved a revelation, delivering a technically impeccable, emotionally powerful performance of two Mozart piano concertos and a pair of solo works…” – St. Paul Pioneer Press) Wachs was auditioned by Zubin Mehta at the age of eight and was a student of the late Enrique Barenboim. He subsequently pursued studies at the Zürich Academy as well as The Curtis Institute of Music and The Juilliard School.  He has participated at such festivals at Aspen, Tanglewood and Verbier.
 
Committed to the cause of education, Wachs is one of the few conductors of his generation successfully balancing the busy demands of an academic and professional career. He leads the Orange County Youth Symphony Orchestra (“The performance was smashing thanks in no small part to the exceptionally well-practiced pre-professionals…” – LA Times) and is Music Director of the Chapman Chamber Orchestra. Both orchestras were finalists for the 2012 American Prize in Orchestral Performance and OCYSO is the 2012 winner in the youth category. In May 2014, OCYSO will present the West Coast première of a new work by Mark Anthony Turnage on a special subscription concert presented by the Philharmonic Society of Orange County at the Renée & Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall. During Wachs’ tenure, the Chapman Chamber Orchestra completed a survey of Mahler song cycles with baritone Vladimir Chernov and initiated a partnership with LA Opera’s Domingo-Thornton Young Artist Program. Wachs’ expertise and experience in developing and infusing new life into education concerts has resulted in an ongoing collaboration with the Monterey and Palm Beach Symphonies.

An accomplished opera conductor and collaborative pianist, Wachs has led Albert Herring, Cosi fan tutte, The Impressario, Suor Angelica, Gianni Schicchi, Amahl and the Night Visitors, acts from La Traviata and Die Fledermaus and operas by Pasatieri which were lauded by the composer himself. He has accompanied tenor William Burden in recital and recently made his debut on the LA Philharmonic Chamber Music Series at Walt Disney Concert Hall.  More information on Daniel Alfred Wachs may be found at his website.Music Director and Director of Instrumental Studies, Chapman University Orchestras/////////daniel-wellman/our-faculty/daniel-wellmanChapman.eduslynch_BREI1329947145020opstu0413313408477350060115//(714) 774-7893Teaching

Daniele Struppa, Ph.D., joined Chapman University in 2006 serving as provost and then as chancellor since 2007.  He earned his laurea in mathematics from the University of Milan, Italy.  He received his doctorate degree in mathematics from the University of Maryland, College Park.  He has received several awards and honors including the prestigious Bartolozzi Prize from the Italian Mathematical Union (in 1981), the Matsumae Medal from the Matsumae International Foundation of Tokyo (1987) and in 2006, the BIO-IT Coalition (a non-profit organization based in Washington DC, and dedicated to the support of bioinformatics) established a new prize in his honor, the “Professor Daniele Struppa Award,” which is designed to honor high school teachers in math, science, and technology. 

Prior to coming to Chapman University, Dr. Struppa had a distinguished career as a Professor of Mathematics and occupied positions at the University of Milano (Italy), at the Scuola Normale Superiore in Pisa (Italy), at the University of Calabria (Italy) and since 1987, at George Mason University in Virginia.  While at George Mason, Dr. Struppa served as director of the Center for the Applications of Mathematics, as chair of the Department of Mathematical Sciences, and as associate dean for graduate studies.  In 1997, he was selected dean of the College of Arts and Sciences at George Mason University, a position he held until he joined Chapman University.

He is the author of more than 150 refereed publications, and he is the editor of several volumes.  He has edited or co-authored six books, The Mathematical Legacy of Leon Ehrenpreis (2012), Noncommutative Functional Calculus: Theory and Applications of Slice Hyperholomorphic Functions (2011), Harmonic Analysis, Signal Processing, and Complexity: Festschrift in Honor of the 60th Birthday of Carlos A. Berenstein (2005), Analysis of Dirac Systems and Computational Algebra (2004), Fundamentals of Algebraic Microlocal Analysis (1999), and The Fundamental Principle for Systems of Convolution Equations (1983).  While serving as chancellor, Dr. Struppa has continued his scholarly research focusing on Fourier analysis and its applications to a variety of problems including the algebraic analysis of systems of differential equations, signal processing, and pattern recognition.  Some of his recent work applies these ideas and methods to problems ranging from denoising to bio-contaminant protection to proteomics of cancerous cells.

In the graduate program at New York University, Kost learned the importance of storytelling and creative vision.  He also came to realize that resourcefulness is more important than resources.  Since then he has worked professionally in almost every capacity on film and video productions of all sizes—from camera to lighting, production, sound, editing, and writing.

Kost has proven his understanding of the production/storytelling process over and over again with his award-winning short films which have been screened at festivals and distributed on television all around the world.  If you watch Sundance, Bravo, IFC, Showtime, or the Sci-Fi Channel, you may have already seen some.

Kost loves teaching and mentoring and brings his all-around knowledge to both.  He knows the way for students to make great short films is to look at the big picture.  That means telling involved stories with a unique creative vision and strong technical execution, a winning combination, as David Kost surely knows.

Research and Scholarship

  • Nonlinear dynamical systems theory in psychotherapy process
  • Family therapy process research
  • Imagery therapy for pain management
  • Behavioral medicine in child health and fitness

During his graduate training, Dr. Pincus developed and began testing an integrated and generic model of family systems, group, and individual therapy process. His theory and methodology are based upon recent updates to general systems theories referred to as nonlinear dynamical systems theory. His research has demonstrated that the dynamics of verbal conversation patterns within families and within therapy groups are similar to patterns observed in other complex systems in nature known as self-organizing systems. These systems include earthquakes, population dynamics, traffic jams, and branching patterns in biological structures (e.g., neurons, plant-life). Flowing from his graduate research, Dr. Pincus has continued to test, expand and refine his model of relationship dynamics.  In addition to understanding the complex dynamics that underlie human relationships, Dr. Pincus has applied nonlinear research to the understanding of biopsychosocial systems involved in areas such as pain and childhood obesity.

Having grown up around the film industry—her father, Guy McElwaine, was a legendary agent and studio exec— it's not surprising that Dawn Taubin chose a career in film. However, her career path wasn't exactly a straight line. "I initially thought I wanted to work in production," says Taubin. "It wasn't until I took a position as assistant to the director of publicity at National Amusements— a movie theatre franchise owned by Sumner Redstone— that I discovered I was much more suited to marketing."

Sometimes, that's how careers get started. A seemingly inconsequential decision leads to a newly discovered passion. For Taubin, such a discovery led to the beginning of a wildly successful career in film marketing. After working her way up through MGM, Taubin went on to work for Warner Bros' as the vice president of publicity. In 2002, she was promoted to President of domestic marketing, where she oversaw a team of 200 employees, with a billion dollar annual operating budget.

Over the years, Taubin has worked with such acclaimed directors as Clint Eastwood, Martin Scorsese, Steven Soderberg and Christopher Nolan. She has also orchestrated the marketing campaigns for a series of blockbuster films, including the Harry Potter series, The Matrix, 300, and The Dark Knight.

"Working on Harry Potter was truly one of the highlights of my career. It was exciting to be involved with the franchise from the beginning and to set the strategy for what would ultimately become the most successful film franchise in history."

In 2009, Taubin decided to leave Warner Bros, and start a new career at Chapman. "[Chapman Professor] Alex Rose asked me if I would meet with some people to discuss Dodge's marketing program. Pretty soon, they were asking me to do guest lectures, then Professor Cory O'Connor asked me if I would co-teach his class. Little by little, it grew into a new career."

Another happy accident. One that Taubin enjoys "because I learn so much from my students and I love sharing what I've learned in my 25 years in marketing."

A chance trip to the movies changed everything. Touched "by the music of the images in Fellini's La Strada," he finished his J.D. and then earned an M.F.A. at the Hungarian Theater and Film University.

Because his directing choices were controversial, political pressure led Magyar to the United States, where he continued to write, direct and produce some critically acclaimed films. He was invited to be a Filmmaker-in-Residence at the American Film Institute, where he later became the Director then Chair of its prestigious Conservatory. He also led the Canadian Film Center in Toronto before coming to Chapman as associate dean.

Magyar credits his training in both music and law with helping shape his views as a filmmaker. "In the law," he says, "everybody has a point of view. The truth of a story or a character is not black and white. Music," he adds, "teaches you compositional sense." And in the end, as any good filmmaker knows, it's the ebb and flow of images, the symphony of the story that moves us most.

When former Marine Don Marsh decided he wanted to teach, it was a lack of available history classes that led him to teaching an industrial arts class and ultimately discovering a passion for graphics and printing.

“The process is entirely hands-on,” says Marsh. “I enjoy starting a project from conception and seeing it through to the finished project. Working in the graphic arts allows me that satisfaction. ”

Complementing his passion for graphics is his dedication to a life of continuous learning, evident in his personal endeavors. The business changes constantly and Marsh frequently takes courses to ensure he stays on top of the latest technology, trends, and capabilities. 

Marsh’s commitment to teaching started 37 years ago, and is still going strong today. What’s the best part?

"Seeing my students meet challenges and succeed in a new area,” says Marsh. “Opening their eyes to the world of works is truly an enjoyable experience.”

I am from Baltimore, Maryland, where I attended Gilman School, playing varsity football and participating on the debate team. I attended Dickinson College, Carlisle, Pa., where I was a History major, played varsity football and was active In Phi Kappa Sigma fraternity. I served as Pledge Master, Treasurer, and Social Chairman. I worked as a bartender, bouncer, bar manager, and piano mover before I realized I much preferred the academic community. I then earned my MA from Chapman University in Child Psychology, followed by my doctorate in Social Psychology at USC.  I worked for The Center for Creative Leadership (CCL) for 15 years (while teaching at Chapman) where I conducted over 300, four-hour leadership- development sessions with senior executives. The sessions, as part of an intense, one-week leadership enhancement program, consisted of the interpretation of Psychological instruments, as these applied to my clients’ goals. CCL was recently assessed as the number one non-academic leadership development organization (Business Week) in the country. I still serve as an independent feedback consultant where I specialize in working with “difficult” employees. I also occasionally utilize my sports background in working with coaches and players. I love what I do and take great interest in assisting students reach their academic and personal potentials.

After many years working in corporate America, Ed Gillow gave it all up to pursue his passion for acting.

This life-changing passion was first sparked after watching Martin Milner and George Maharis “doing their weekly thing” in the 60s television series Route 66. The characters and story motivated him to try something new, which led him to a long-standing career of acting for the camera in eight leading roles and countless other parts.

Gillow earned his Bachelor’s and Master’s in Electrical Engineering from the University of Arkansas and his MBA from California Lutheran University, but says his greatest achievement was receiving his SAG and AFTRA membership cards. Gillow has taught part-time since 1980 saying, “I teach because I feel it is important to give back. I had many mentors in my life and now that I have the where-with-all, I am ‘sending the elevator back down’.”

Dr. Jankowski's area of study is Medieval Literature, particularly the Anglo-Saxon poem Beowulf and Chaucer's Canterbury Tales. She has published articles in The Chaucer Review on the topic of Chaucer's "Second Nun's Tale," focusing on its apocalyptic narrative techniques, as well as a study of Chaucer's influence in the 15th century on Osbern Bokenham. She has also contributed to The Encyclopedia of Medieval England, and is currently researching the Gawain-Poet in terms of moral and metaphysical monsters in this unique body of 14th-century alliterative poetry.

Dr. Jankowski was awarded Chapman faculty's highest honor, the Valerie Scudder Award, in 2004, and received an Excellence Award for Service in 2003. She has served the English Department as the Director of Composition, represented the School of Communication Arts as a Senator, and was elected by the faculty to the position of Secretary of Communication and Records for the 2004-2005 academic year.

Emily Carman earned her PhD from the Cinema and Media Studies program at UCLA's Department of Film, Television, and Digital Media, where she channeled her passion for film history, especially classic Hollywood cinema in the 1930s, into various scholarly and professional pursuits in film. While her primary research expertise focus on film stardom, the Hollywood studio system and media industries, other scholarly interests include postwar European cinemas (especially Italy) and moving image archive theory and practice.Carman is currently preparing her book for publication at University of Texas Press, titled Independent Stardom: Female Stars and Freelance Labor in 1930s Hollywood, in which she documents how female stars like Carole Lombard, Irene Dunne, Barbara Stanwyck (and more) became freelance artists in the 1930s, and by doing so, they proactively took ownership of their career and star image decades before it became standard practice in Hollywood. She is also currently co-editing the volume Hollywood and the Law for BFI/Palgrave press, which explores how legal infrastructures influence and regulate the content, distribution, and consumption of film and media.

In addition to her scholarly pursuits, she has worked for various motion picture archives and cultural institutions, including the Warner Bros. Archives of the School of Cinematic Arts at the University of Southern California, where she was the curator responsible for the preservation of the collection and its public access for research, the Academy Film Archive, L'Immagine Ritrovata at the Cineteca di Bologna, and the UCLA Film and Television Archive. She helped curate the UCLA Film and Television Archive centennial Barbara Stanwyck Retrospective, "A Lady to Talk About" in Spring 2007 and coordinated the 17th Annual Thinking Gender International Graduate Student Conference for the UCLA Center of the Study of Women.

Prior to arriving at Chapman University, Carman taught film studies at several Southern California institutions, including UCLA, UC-Santa Barbara, Otis College of Art and Design, and Santa Barbara City College.

Ernie Marjoram practiced architecture for 15 years before opening his own design consulting firm, where he specialized in creating concept illustrations for architectural, interiors, and entertainment projects. For three years, he worked as a full-time contract artist for Walt Disney Imagineering and helped develop DisneyQuest for their theme park in Orlando, Florida.

Dodge College Course: Production and Set Management

Gary Schmoeller was raised in the “oil patch of West Texas”; where he began working in the transportation industry- that is, until his brother David, a screenwriter and director, suggested that he come to Los Angeles to seek a career in feature films. Schmoeller agreed, and took a crash course in film at the University of California, Los Angeles Extension and began working as a Production Manager with acclaimed horror director Brian Yuzna.

Over the last eighteen years, he has produced over thirty films as a “true indie producer.” He strongly believes that “contacts are just as important as skills sets” and encourages his students to keep an open mind. He says that teaching at Dodge College has given him a new appreciation for the medium. “The creativity and enthusiasm of the students gives me great pleasure.”

Bring Academy Award-winning director Robert Zemeckis to his directing class and Bettman wades right in, challenging his old friend's point of view and sparking a good-natured debate about the best ways to tell a story using a camera. But that's Bettman's style. He has very definite opinions about how to block a camera or talk to actors from his days as a top action director for TV series like The Twilight Zone and Knight Rider. Bettman learned the value of subjecting all film ideas to the acid test of a free-wheeling debate from Zemeckis himself while working as a screenwriter developing projects for Zemeckis at Universal and Warner Brothers. It's a lesson Bettman wants to pass on to his students as well.

With a degree from Harvard (with honors in English Literature), as well as an M.F.A. from UCLA, Bettman has directed a wide range of projects from feature films to music videos and corporate profiles. He recently directed a feature documentary, The Long Road to Cabo, for rock icon Sammy Hagar, and published a textbook, First Time Director, through Michael Wiese Productions.

Any day of the week you can find him sitting contentedly in his campus editing suite, working on Hollywood's latest project, often with a student by his side. Yet somewhere beneath that placid exterior must rage a creative fire, the kind that could fuel the inspired sound editing that Cheney contributed as part of the team that won an Academy Award for  the blood-curdling soundtrack of Bram Stoker's Dracula.

In fact, Cheney's long list of credits, including feature films (Legends of the Fall, Bottle Rocket, Guarding Tess, Poetic Justice, The Mirror Has Two Faces, Atlas Shrugged, CBGB), TV movies (Sworn to Silence, Intruder, I Want to Live, Dead by Sunset), and TV series (from Smallville and Gilmore Girls to Deadwood), have brought him numerous Emmy and Golden Reel nominations. One has to suspect that a hidden dynamo of energy lurks concealed just beneath his professorial-looking surface. Whatever his driving force, students are well aware that editor Cheney is much in demand—in Hollywood, and in the classroom—for his clear, consistent and well-thought out delivery of the goods. A truly sound man, one might say.

Dodge College Courses: Feature Screenwriting II, Fundamentals of Screenwriting

After graduating college, James Dutcher jumped into the world of writing and performing sketch comedy. But, “Once I tried to write something longer than three minutes, I knew I needed help,” which led him to study screenwriting in graduate school.

After polishing his writing talents, Dutcher was presented with the opportunity to work for German television—“it’s a long story!” he insists. To date, he has scripted a dozen projects for Germany and had seven produced. He loves crafting stories for a foreign country, since “The feeling of communicating so well with someone so far away in a language I don’t even speak has not been matched.”

Next to writing, teaching has become a great passion for Dutcher. “I grew up in rural New York with three channels to choose from,” he says. “All the choices that students have today actually lessen the number of films they see. It is my mission to expose students to movies they wouldn’t find on their own. It’s very satisfying when a student thanks you for turning them on to a film.”

"If you're the manager of a baseball team, you have to create a team of divergent individuals, with different skills, who play together as a unit. The same is true of theatre, it's true of film, and it's true of television."

Gardner graduated with an MFA in Directing from the Yale School of Drama. He later went on to become a Directing Fellow at the American Film Institute. He has directed several sitcoms, including the Prime Time Emmy Award- nominated series My Sister Sam, and the longtime running series Coach.

"The people who make television work," Gardner says, "are the people who recognize and accept the television show for what it is. People often assume that television's purpose is to create art, but that's a mistake. Art happens by mistake. The real purpose of television is commerce. Art sometimes happens, despite commerce, but the show exists, first and foremost, to draw viewers to commercials for products. As the director, it's my job to attract those viewers, by creating a great show. One way to do that is to create a space where the crew and the actors feel safe to contribute ideas. After all, everyone on the set wants the show to be great, and if everyone is working together towards that goal, then hopefully the audience will notice and keep watching."

In 2002, New York University hired Gardner to design an integrated curriculum for their new television program that would pull on the resources of the 11 existing programs listed under the TISCH School of the Arts. The program attracted the attention of Dodge College Dean Bob Bassett, who asked Gardner to develop the TV program at Chapman University.

"Bob's really smart," Gardner says. "He wanted to create a unique program, called narrative television, which would produce the best trained students to enter the profession."

As for the future, "We're all crossing our fingers to see what happens next. This whole curve ball of 3D, and the internet, nobody knows where it's going. About the only thing I can say is that it won't involve a television set, unless that television is hooked to the computer. As our program evolves, you're going to see television, the internet, and 3D merging together, giving our students a chance to live television history."

After graduating from high school in 1944, Miller enlisted in the Coast Guard to avoid being drafted for overseas service during World War II.  The war ended and Miller was able to attend college on the G.I. Bill.  He received his English major and History minor in 1949 from North Texas State Teaching College and immediately began pursuing a graduate degree in History.  Miller originally intended to go into the ministry; however his need for money led him along another path: teaching.  Throughout Jim's many years of teaching, he has demonstrated a love of teaching that also reflected his passion for history.

Jim Miller joined Chapman in 1956, as an associate professor of English only two years after the college had been established.  When he arrived, the school had 250 students.  His Chapman experience began before campus buildings had names, when people identified them by the different colored stripes near the roofs.  He has had 13 different offices and taught classes in seven departments: cultural anthropology, speech, English, history, political science, religion and education.

The honorable George L. Argyros, best describes Prof. Miller as a favorite Chapman teacher.  "He represents the best of the teaching profession.  He's a great professor and a first-class human being.  He's always positive and has a great sense of humor. "

    Shearer quickly moved up through a variety of editorial positions to managing and then executive editor.  It was here, working with writers, artists, designers and photographers, that she began to realize the joy of one of her other lifelong dreams—to be a teacher.  "Editing—helping a writer shape a story—is all about teaching."

    As she began to write for public relations, Shearer also produced corporate and non-profit videos and a wide range of award-winning public relations pieces.  At Chapman, she also served a four-year stint as Director of Public Relations.

    In the end, it all comes down to finding the words to produce the effect the writer intends.  "For me, it's all about strategy, about finding the right words to humanize the story.  Whatever I've done—from designing an entire campaign to writing a simple brochure—it's always about finding how the subject affects people.  If you ask enough questions, sooner or later you'll find out why people care."

    Dr. Janet Dodd’s research focuses on multi-disciplinary assessment of children suspected of a diagnosis within the autism, therapy interventions for children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD), and the use of augmentative and alternative forms of communication (AAC) for children with complex communication needs. Her current research projects explore the use of classroom based social skills interventions for children with ASD and employing AAC interventions based on an immersion model. Her thesis was a comparison of a phonological process analysis in three separate speech samples, and her doctoral dissertation was a comparison of the syntactic comprehension ages of children with autism and typically developing children on theory of mind tasks.

    Dr. Dodd received her B.A. in speech and hearing sciences from University of California, Santa Barbara, and her M.A. in communication disorders from California State University, Fullerton. She was awarded a Doctorate in Speech-Language Pathology from Nova Southeastern University in Florida.  Dr. Dodd brings more than 20 years of clinical experience to her new position having worked as a highly regarded speech-language pathologist in Irvine Unified School and Los Alamitos Unified School Districts, as well as the United Cerebral Palsy Center. She has extensive experience in collaboration, inclusive education, in-home intervention, and culturally diverse family programs. She taught graduate-level courses in communication disorders as an adjunct professor at California State University, Long Beach prior to joining Chapman University.

Jeff Swimmer has traveled the world only to watch that world be transformed before his eyes.

    While most of us only dream of flying over Istanbul, walking across volcanoes in Hawaii, and being in the epicenter of the tsunami that hit Indonesia, Jeff Swimmer can only smile and say, "Somewhere down the road I got really lucky, being able to pursue my childhood dream of traveling." Working with brand networks such as NBS, CNN, National Geographic and the Discovery channel, Jeff has seen it all.

    During the production of several documentary projects, Jeff discovered an interest in teaching and now oversees the International Documentary program at Dodge, where he encourages students to pursue exactly what they want. "There is only so much you can learn in the classroom, but to go overseas and work with an international program improves the learning curve of students in ways that they can't even imagine.  The overall transformation is amazing."

    The music of composer Jeffrey Holmes has been called “Captivating…haunting and slightly disorienting” by the Los Angeles Times, “Drifting…ethereal” by the San Francisco Classical Voice, and “Interesting and musically arresting, music to be really heard and deserving of reflection” by the Society of Composers, INC.  As a traditionalist, he composes music for acoustic orchestral instruments, using standard notational methods; as a formalist, he works within a complex and unique diatonic, chromatic, and microtonal language; as a transcendentalist, he combines the inherent abstraction of sound with a greater meaning and possibility of interpretation through the use of lyricism and overt expression.

    His music has been performed at festivals such as the Darmstadt Ferienkurs für Neue Musik (Germany), June in Buffalo (New York), Etchings Festival in Maulin a Nef, Auvillar (France), La Pietra Forum for New Music (Florence, Italy), at MicroFest (2003, 2005, and 2011) and both the HEAR NOW and “What’s Next?” festivals (Los Angeles), and in venues including Carnegie Hall (New York), the Historic Dvorak Museum (Prague, Czech Republic), and the Chapelle historique de Bon-Pasteur (Montreal, Canada).  He has received commissions and performances from groups including the Penderecki String Quartet, Bass-baritone Nicholas Isherwood (Germany), Ensemble Sound Initiative (Paris, France), the JACK Quartet, ECCE - East Coast Contemporary Ensemble, “Duo Resonances” - France (Frédérique Luzy and Pierre Bibault), Piano Spheres, the Eclipse String Quartet, Trio Terroir, California Institute of the Arts Orchestra, USC Thornton Symphony, Xtet, Inauthentica, Duo Amantis, and others.

    He holds a doctorate in music composition from the University of Southern California, and has studied with composers such as Georg Friedrich Haas, Donald Crockett and Stephen Hartke.  Currently, he is Associate Professor of Composition and
