Ned O'Gorman is an U.S. professor and author in communication studies.[1] His research focuses on the history of rhetoric, media studies, and political culture.

He is the author of several books, most recently Politics for Everybody: Reading Hannah Arendt in Uncertain Times (University of Chicago Press). Prior to Politics for Everybody, he was the author of three books on the Cold War and its aftermath including, with Kevin Hamilton, the award-winning Lookout America! The Secret Hollywood Film Studio at the Heart of the Cold War,[3] published in 2019 by Dartmouth College Press. The book is centered on the history of Lookout Mountain Air Force Station Laboratory.[4] It was the basis of the Smithsonian documentary "Atomic Age Declassified: Filming the Bomb[5]" and has informed other documentaries and exhibits on the nuclear age in the United States and Europe.
