About Jackson Reinhardt
I am a graduate of University of Southern California and Vanderbilt Divinity School, with a B.A. and Master of Theological Studies degree respectively. I am currently an independent scholar, freelance writer, and soon to be research associate at the Religious Freedom Institute. I just finished a semester long stint as a communications intern with the Save Ancient Studies Alliance (SASA). While working for SASA, I hosted lectures, and then and interviewed, Lovecraft scholar S.T. Joshi and heavy metal classicist Dr. Jeremy Swist. I have written a variety of peer-reviewed articles in several fields, mostly revolving around political readings of the Bible (both Hebrew Bible and New Testament) and early Christian tradition. I am also frequently review books in the fields of biblical studies, American religious history, and American cultural studies. My current research interests include the history of transatlantic evangelicalism, anti-imperial biblical studies, and American political history (particularly the varieties of American conservatism).
