Jerry White

Jerry White is a doctoral student in Comparative Literature at the University of Alberta, where he also teaches Film Studies. He has written for publications in the United States, Canada, Quebec, India, Turkey, Australia, Austria and Denmark, most of which, he fears, are read by very few people other than his parents and domestic partner. He is the Ticket Manager of the Telluride Film Festival, a Program Consultant to the Philadelphia Festival of World Cinema (for whom he worked full time from 1993 to 96), and recently curated a program of Arctic video (that's right, Arctic video) for the Taos Talking Pictures Festival. Despite his quest for Canadian identity, he remains a Pirates fan.
