Steve J. Ross, professor of History at USC and co-director of the LA Institute for the Humanities, says that Hollywood has a longer history of conservatism than liberalism, and that the Hollywood Right has had a greater impact on American political life.

His book, Hollywood Left and Right, received the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences’ Film Scholars Award, the academic equivalent of an “Oscar” and has been nominated for a Pulitzer Prize.
