I've taught film and television studies in the Telecommunication and Film Department at the University of Alabama since 1980 and been a visiting professor at the University of Arizona. I've been involved with college and Public radio since 1972 and currently host "All Things Acoustic" on Alabama Public Radio.

I'm the author of Television: Critical Methods and Applications (Mahweh, NJ: Lawrence Erlbaum Associates, 2006) and the editor of Star Texts: Image and Performance in Film and Television (Detroit: Wayne State University Press, 1991).

My previous encyclopedia-writing experience was for the Encyclopedia of Television.

Internet Projects[edit]

  • ScreenLex — a pronunciation guide for film/TV students and
  • ScreenSite — a resource for film/TV students and teachers
  • TVCrit.com — the companion Website for the book, Television: Critical Methods and Applications
  • My official homepage
  • The TCF Department
  • The Internet Folk Radio List — a directory of hundreds of radio programs that feature folk, acoustic, singer-songwriter, and international music.
  • I've been participating in Wikipedia since 17:36, 23 March 2005 — starting out as JButler. I didn't like that account name, because of its funky punctuation (i.e., Jbutler and jbutler don't equal JButler on Wikipedia). When I realized you could create an account name with a space in it, I switched to Jeremy Butler (27 August 2005). I'm mostly interested in articles dealing with folk music and film and television studies.
