Delores Natale, a lecturer of public relations at Westminster College, recently presented "From Typist to Tyrant: Film's Portrayal of Women in Journalism" at the 17th annual Far West Popular Culture Conference in Las Vegas.
"I used excerpts from four different films produced between 1940 and 1994 to illustrate both stereotypical and balanced portrayals of women in journalism, Natale said. "Implicit in the research is the influence the writers and actors had on either contributing to or debunking stereotypes."
Natale, who has been with Westminster College since 2001, earned her undergraduate degree from Westminster College.
