Playlist: Sean Guillory's Portfolio
Sean Guillory wrote, edited, and produced Teddy Goes to the USSR, his first audio documentary. He's a historian of Russia/Soviet Union and a podcaster. In 2015, he started the SRB Podcast, a weekly interview show on Eurasian politics, culture, and history. He has since embraced the art of audio narrative. Sean works in the University of Pittsburgh's Russian, East European and Eurasian Studies Center where he holds the undistinguished title of Digital Scholarship Curator. He's a Los Angeleno at heart and misses three things about the City of Angels: the Lakers, In-N-Out Burger, and the weather. He lives in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania for reasons he's still trying to figure out.
