Profile Summary

My name is James Dievler, and I have worked as a college professor, and more recently, a freelance writer, editor, and tutor. I was born in Jersey City, grew up in Bergen County and moved to Philadelphia where I attended the University of Pennsylvania (earning a B.A. in Philosophy) and Temple University, receiving an M.F.A. in Screenwriting. Subsequently, I moved to New York City where I lived for 16 years and earned my PhD. in American Studies from NYU. I moved back here to Jersey City two years ago. As an American Studies Ph.D., I have over twenty years of college/university teaching experience in subjects ranging from English Composition, Business Writing, American History, and Literature. I am a published scholarly writer and freelance writer. I am also a passionate creative writer, engaged in writing short and long fiction as well as poetry. Further, I work as a freelance editor and writer, possessing expert skills in grammar, punctuation, and proofreading. Presently, as an engaged and active resident of the Journal Square Community of Jersey City, I am a board member of both the New Journal Square Community Association and The Bergen Square Historical Society. I am chairperson of the History Committee of the New Journal Square Community Association. My publication samples are available at https://writers.work/drjames
