Elizabeth Ewen

Elizabeth Ewen was a scholar of women's history, immigration, and film. She was among the first feminist historians to write about early American cinema.[1] Ewen was a professor of American Studies at the State University of New York at Old Westbury (SUNY).[2]

Noted film historian Robert Sklar described Ewen's 1980 article, “City Lights: Immigrant Women and the Rise of the Movies,” in Signs: Journal of Women in Culture and Society, as 'the first significant writing by a historian on early American cinema to follow the author's and [Garth] Jowett's books.”[3] Ewen's book, Immigrant Women in the Land of Dollars, examined the role of cinema in the lives of immigrant girls and women in New York City's Lower East Side.[4] Filmmaker Ellen Noonan has explained that the book was the inspiration for the 1993 documentary Heaven Will Protect the Working Girl.[5]

Elizabeth Ewen authored several books with her husband, media historian Stuart Ewen,[6] and her colleague Rosalyn Baxandall,[7][8] including Channels of Desire: Mass Images and the Shaping of American Consciousness (1992),[9] Picture Windows: How the Suburbs Happened (2000), Typecasting: On the Arts and Sciences of Human Inequality (2006).[10]

Ewen's work is frequently cited by contemporary historians.[11][12]

Elizabeth Ewen died May 29, 2012, in Manhattan, New York.[13]
