Caroline Ruddell

My work has largely been focused on representation onscreen, particularly in relation to gender and identity. My first book was about split identity onscreen. A lot of my work over recent years has been in the field of animation studies, and I have explored in depth the under researched animator Lotte Reiniger and her influence on animation. I have also recently written about play and craft in animation and animation studies. I am currently writing a book about stepparents onscreen, which has a heavy focus on gender and genre.
