organization and research network that helps coordinating academic research and
media commentaries on celebrity culture. CMCS carries a pedagogical
philosophy that inspires integration of research and media skills training in
academic and public discourses of fame. The centre believes in
intellectual, aesthetic, and ethical values of bridging gaps in higher
education and media. With this view, CMCS facilitates research,
publications, creative productions, and media commentaries to restore artistic
and ethical acts for social change.</font></span><font face="Arial"><font face="Arial"><font style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255)"><font size="1"><font color="#666666"><span style="font-size:10pt"><br></span></font></font></font></font></font></p><div><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div><div><font face="Arial"><font face="Arial"><font style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255)"><font size="1"><font color="#666666"><span style="font-size:10pt"><br></span></font></font></font></font></font></div><div><font face="Arial"><font face="Arial"><font style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255)"><font size="1"><font color="#666666"><strong><img width="93" height="96" src="https://docs.google.com/uc?export=download&id=0B_ckFM3USjxHMnRpV2FNU1ZLZzg&revid=0B_ckFM3USjxHa2xSWlk5ZysvZDZXSFk4UmRjaS84ME1XcDJjPQ"></strong></font></font></font></font></font></div><div><br clear="all"></div><div><div><div><div><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div><font face="Arial"><font face="Arial"><font style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255)"><font size="1"><font color="#666666"><strong>Dr Samita Nandy<br></strong></font><font color="#666666">Director, Centre for Media and Celebrity Studies (CMCS)<br>Author, <em>Fame in Hollywood North</em>.
