About
Murray Pomerance is a scholar and writer with a global reputation in screen studies.
Across a distinguished career he has been recognised as one of the most original film scholars writing and researching today. His numerous field-defining works include a Hitchcock Quartet, including A Voyage with Hitchcock (forthcoming in September), but his publications number in the dozens. These include The Film Cheat (Bloomsbury, 2020), and Cinema, If You Please: The Memory of Taste, the Taste of Memory (2018, Edinburgh UP). He serves as editor for two distinguished series at major academic presses: ‘Techniques of the Moving Image’ at Rutgers, and SUNY Press’s prestigious ‘Horizons of Cinema.’ Seeing the world with a poet’s eye, his writing on cinema is enriched by his wide-ranging knowledge in other disciplines: literature, sociology, theatre, performance, architecture, music, and art history and he is also an O. Henry Award-winning author whose fiction includes Grammatical Dreams (Green Integer, 2020) and A King of Infinite Space (Oberon, 2016).
