Lorne M. Buchman, Ph.D. has dedicated his career to education and the arts and, more recently, to innovations in online learning. He served for ten years on the faculty of the University of California, Berkeley, as professor of dramatic literature and theory, chair of the Department of Dramatic Art, and associate dean of the College of Letters and Science.
