Michael Connerty

I’m Co-Chair of the Animation Programme at IADT, and I teach film and animation history and visual culture on the Animation and Graphic Design programmes. I also teach a cross-Faculty elective module, Introduction to Comics. In 2018 I completed a PhD from Central Saint Martins, University of the Arts London, where my research was centered on Victorian comics, and specifically the work of Irish artist Jack B. Yeats. I have published on comics and animation history, and my monograph, The Comic Strip Art of Jack B. Yeats is forthcoming from Palgrave Macmillan in 2021.
