Jordan Shapiro, PhD is senior fellow for the Joan Ganz Cooney Center at Sesame Workshop, and Nonresident Fellow in the Center for Universal Education at the Brookings Institution. His Forbes\u2019 column (2012-17) on global education, learning through digital play, kids and culture was read by over 5 million people around the world. He is an international speaker and consultant whose fresh perspective combines psychology, philosophy, and economics in unexpected ways.<\/p>\n
His book,\u00a0The New Childhood: Raising Kids to Thrive in a Connected World<\/i>\u00a0(Little, Brown Spark 2018) changed the cultural conversation about childrearing and screen time. In\u00a0Father Figure: How to be a Feminist Dad\u00a0<\/i>(Little, Brown Spark 2021), Shapiro offers a norm-shattering perspective on fatherhood, family, and gender essentialism. The\u00a0New York Times Book Review\u00a0<\/i>called it \u201cutterly mind-blowing.\u201d<\/p>\n
Shapiro teaches at Temple University in both the Intellectual Heritage and the Gender, Sexuality, and Women\u2019s Studies programs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":11570,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"members-type":[873,857],"class_list":["post-11563","biography","type-biography","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","members-type-authors","members-type-speakers"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
