Christy Glaubke is associate director of the Children & the Media Program at Children Now, a national research and advocacy organization based in Oakland, CA. She oversees independent research projects on children and the media and monitors public policy developments in the communications field as it affects children. She has directed several Children & the Media studies including Fair Play? Violence, Gender and Race in Video Games and Fall Colors: Prime Time Diversity Report 2003-04. She was the lead researcher on Big Media, Little Kids, a study of the impact of media consolidation on children’s programming in the Los Angeles market. Glaubke directed Children Now’s 2004 conference Digital Television: Sharpening the Focus on Children, which resulted in the FCC passing landmark rules to define digital broadcasters’ public interest obligations to children. Currently, Glaubke is working with the Children’s Media Policy Coalition to protect the new digital television rules and to secure a ban on interactive advertising during children’s television programs. Before joining Children Now, Glaubke worked in the media industry, developing and producing films, Web sites and interactive educational curricula for children. She holds a Master of Arts in educational psychology and a Bachelor of Arts in mass communication from the University of California, Los Angeles.
