Culbert Family Book Prize for Publications on Media History dealing with Propaganda, Mass Persuasion and Public Opinion
David H. Culbert (1943-2017) was a diligent media historian. More than anything else, his scholarly interest was the research on the history of propaganda, information policy and mass persuasion. He was John L. Loos Professor of History at Louisiana State University, an active International Association for Media and History (IAMHIST) Council member and editor of the Historical Journal of Film, Radio, and Television from 1992 to 2012.
