  • Charles Jogi Shindo is a Professor of United States history at Louisiana State University. Dr. Shindo took his BA at the University of Southern California where he undertook a number of majors before settling on history. He then earned a master's degree at California State University, Fullerton. He undertook his Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Rochester. His dissertation, entitled "Voices of the migrant : democracy and culture in the dust bowl works of John Steinbeck, John Ford, and Woody Guthrie" was completed under the direction of historian Robert Westbrook in 1992. Dr. Shindo's book, Dust Bowl Migrants in the American Imagination challenges the common conception of the Dust Bowl migrant, arguing that a small group of artists perpetuated the stereotype of the downtrodden "Okie" to promote their own reformist agenda, when, in fact, the realities of the migrant worker was quite different. At LSU, Dr. Shindo's course offerings center on Asian-American, U.S. Cultural, and Post-Civil War history. (en)
