Belmont University Professor Don Cusic received the “Governing Board Award” from the American Culture Association (ACA) for his “contributions to American culture” at the recent combined conference of the Popular Culture Association (PCA) and ACA held in Atlanta.
During the conference, Cusic presented a paper, “Johnny Cash and C.S. Lewis,” which will be a chapter in the book Literary Cash: Writings Inspired by the Legendary Johnny Cash (BenBella Books) scheduled for a September publication.
Cusic has also written two chapters for American Icons: An Encyclopedia of the People, Places and Things That Have Shaped Our Culture, a three-volume set scheduled to be published by Greenwood Press in June and has written the 12,000-word entry on “Music” for the Encyclopedia of World Popular Culture, scheduled to be published by Greenwood Press at the end of the year.
