We very pleased to introduce Scott Spencer as the new Music Library Supervisor, effective this week!
Scott received his PhD in Ethnomusicology from New York University in 2010 and went on to serve as the Irish American Cultural Institute’s Visiting Research Fellow in Irish Studies at the National University of Ireland, Galway. He has taught interdisciplinary undergraduate and graduate courses at Trinity College Dublin, and at Rensselaer Polytechnic, Drew and Villanova universities. Before moving to Los Angeles, he served as Mellon Regional Faculty Fellow for the Penn Humanities Forum at the University of Pennsylvania. His background in oral history archives – including those at New York University and the City University of New York – brought him to a position at the USC Shoah Foundation, where he ran the Preserving the Legacy initiative while teaching seminars at Thornton. He remains a part-time lecturer and is currently teaching the World Music course; more information can be found at https://music.usc.edu/scott-spencer.
