Robert Turley (M.A. Tulsa University, 1979, Ph.D. Florida State University, 1992) Associate Professor,
teaches Literature and Mythology, Reading Drama and Honors Reading Conference. His
graduate studies in humanities with a focus on theatre has provided opportunities
to obtain three NEH grants, publish two survey texts in the humanities and popular
culture as well as become involved in community theatre productions where he occasionally
enjoys acting and directing. He also teaches a humanities sequence, a popular culture
course and a recently developed ALS course on Hollywood's Western Hero on a rotating
basis through the Division of Distance Learning. Currently his research and work involves
writing a text to complement his course on Literature and Mythology and an upcoming
Distance Learning course on the films of Alfred Hitchcock. Rob's other interests include
landscape painting, classical guitar, biking and motorcycle touring.
