The original press release

In January, 2005, the BBC1 radio programme "More or Less" presented a program on "The Paternity Myth." I was interviewed for this, but my research is referenced only obliquely, towards the end of the segment. You can listen to a stream of this program here.

In the spring of 2003, a paper I wrote with Sandy Hofferth on fathers and stepfathers in the US received some publicity. The original UMD press release that sparked these articles can be read here.

When I was a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Michigan, the Institute for Social Research created press releases on several projects with which I was involved. These led to a few scattered articles in the popular press, and a couple of radio interviews. I bookmarked a number of these that were published on the web, but after a while they became dead links. Here are a few pages that I saved. I present these as items of historical interest--they have their flaws to be sure, and they do not necessarily characertize the work I'm doing now.

I also did several radio interviews on these results, but none were recorded (so far as I know).
