Mark Kuhn is an Assistant Professor in the Communication Department
at the University of New Hampshire.  Dr. Kuhn received his Doctorate from 
Harvard University, and he has taught at the University of Alaska, 
University of Maine, and part-time at Bowdoin College.  He is currently in 
the final year of a 3 year, faculty in residence appointment at the 
University of New Hampshire.

Dr. Kuhn's research on the 1996 Presidential campaign examines the 
emerging use of the internet in political campaigns, campaign 
advertising during the 1996 NH primary, and the rhetoric of public 
communication (such as stump speeches and campaign forums) during the  
1996 New Hampshire primary.  In the upcoming Presidential campaign Dr. 
Kuhn will be a researcher for The Commission on Presidential Debate's 
Debate Watch `96 project.

Dr. Kuhn's research in political communication has focussed on the
discourse and interaction between speaker and audience.  In that research
he has examined the interaction between Ross Perot and the television
talk-show audience during his 1992 presidential campaign; and an analysis
of a key speech of Bill Clinton in the 1992 New Hampshire Presidential
primary, the speech at Dover one week before the primary vote. 
Additionally, Dr. Kuhn was a researcher for the nationwide focus 
group research sponsored by the Commission on Presidential Debates in 1992 
which examined voters and the Presidential Debates.  His focus in that 
research was on voter discussion of the debates and conflicts.
