JOURNALS
THE JOURNAL OF AYN RAND STUDIES
Though I am the chief editor of every issue of The Journal of Ayn Rand Studies since its founding in Fall 1999, I have been the editor or the co-editor on several book-length symposia published by the journal, including: "The Aesthetics Symposium" (Spring 2001), "Rand, Rush, and Rock" (Fall 2003), "Centenary Symposium, Part I: Ayn Rand: Literary and Cultural Impact" (Fall 2004), "Centenary Symposium, Part II: Ayn Rand Among the Austrians" (Spring 2005, co-edited with Larry Sechrest), "A Symposium: Tenth Anniversary Celebration, Part I" (Fall 2008), "A Symposium on Friedrich Nietzsche and Ayn Rand" (Spring 2009, co-edited with Lester Hunt), a symposium on "Nathaniel Branden: His Work and Legacy" (2016, co-edited with Robert L. Campbell), and "Symposium: Atlas Shrugged: 60+ Years Later" (2019, co-edited by Robert L. Campbell). In essence, as chief editor of The Journal of Ayn Rand Studies, I have edited the equivalent of a two-volume book every year since 1999.
