Show Notes

For the past 22 years, Skidmore College professor Daniel Nathan has taught American Studies on the Saratoga Springs campus. With the liberties given to him and his students, his '10 Books that Changed America' spurred on a new course - '10 Movies that Changed America.'

Nathan discusses creating the new course, what movies ended up on the proverbial cutting room floor, his favorite films, and the upcoming Academy Awards.

His work is incomplete as he remains busy as a writer, editor, professor, and sports enthusiast, so I plan to invite him again to this podcast.
