Biography edit

Hesmondhalgh is Professor of Media, Music and Culture at the University of Leeds. His interests include the cultural and creative industries, cultural policy, the politics of musical experience, and how 'cultural platforms' are transforming media. He joined the University of Leeds in 2007,[1] having previously worked at The Open University for eight years.

He obtained a PhD from Goldsmiths University of London in 1996 for his dissertation on British independent record companies, where he was supervised by Georgina Born.

His books include The Cultural Industries, first published in 2002, described by Herbert et al. in their Media Industry Studies as "a formative text for many who began their research careers at the start of the century" and as "extensively updated to keep pace with the new issues developing in an era of social and internet-distributed media".[2][3] Oakley and O'Connor describe the same book as "the most comprehensive overview of the literature and issues in the field" of cultural and creative industries.[4] He is acknowledged as a key figure in developing the "cultural industries" approach to media, which emphasises the complex and contradictory nature of cultural production under capitalism.[5] He is frequently named as one of the leading analysts of cultural labour, partly based on his book Creative Labour, co-written with Sarah Baker.[6] He is also well-known for his work on the sociology of music, especially his book Why Music Matters (2013), which provides a "nuanced case for music’s value in contributing to intimate and collective 'human flourishing'".[7][8]

Personal life edit

He is the brother of actor and activist Julie Hesmondhalgh and the father of actor and writer Rosa Hesmondhalgh. His long-term partner is the British philosopher Helen Steward.
