Her current monograph project, supported by a Mellon Humanities Fellowship and residence at Yale University’s MacMillan Center for International and Area Studies, builds on research conducted at the National Film Archive of India as well as the American University of Beirut, exploring “South-South” histories of cinema over the decades of the Cold War. Her teaching, research, and curatorial interests span world film history, Middle Eastern and South Asian cinemas, sound studies, and intersections of audiovisual media and literature.
