Michael C. Keith

Michael C. Keith (born 1945 in Albany, New York) is an American media historian and author.

He has served as a faculty member of the Boston College Communication Department [1] since 1993 and is the author of some two dozen books on media.

He is one of the country's foremost authorities on the social impact and role of radio in American culture.

Keith's substantial published output melds his own experience, a network of contacts in and beyond the radio business, and careful research, to produce solid analysis of what a growing number of people in and out of the industry see as the growing crisis of broadcast radio.

His work has been translated in Greece, Albania, Russia, Germany, Indonesia, Spain, and China.
