Donelan’s Book on Northfield Cinema History Covered by Northfield Patch
Carol Donelan, associate professor of cinema and media studies and the department chair, is the focus of a feature on Northfield Patch for the book she recently published entitled Electric Theater: The Emergence of Cinema in Northfield, 1896-1917. According to Patch, “Electric Theater unfurls the history of these theaters and the magic within them, sprinkled with strange and fascinating stories that add special interest to the events of the time (including an unexpected case of anti-Norwegian prejudice).” Donelan is signing books at the Northfield Historical Society during the town’s annual winter walk celebration on Thursday, Dec. 8 from 6-9 p.m. The book will be available for purchase during the signing.
