From the new celebrity culture that has emerged from reality television and the Internet, to the paparazzi-filled endgame of Princess Diana and the bizarre trials and tribulations of Michael Jackson, The Celebrity Culture Reader documents the significant role that celebrities occupy in contemporary culture.
Combining classic essays and contemporary writings, The Celebrity Culture Reader investigates the cultural implications of this complex contemporary phenomenon.
P. David Marshall is Professor and Chair of the Department of Communication Studies at Northeastern University. He is the author of Celebrity and Power (1997) and New Media Cultures (2004), and the co-author of Fame Games (2000) and Web Theory (2003).
