Elizabeth Currid-Halkett, the author of "The Warhol Economy" and an assistant professor at USC's School of Policy, Planning and Development, presents extensive statistical research and analysis, including an exhaustive geographical study that pinpoints where celebrities should be seen--or not seen--to bolster their star status (spoiler alert: stay away from Las Vegas). She analyzes social networks and uses Google to draw fascinating conclusions about the geography and social stratification of the celebrity world. She will discuss our changing star culture, our obsession with celebrity minutiae, and why Paris Hilton actually deserves our respect.
