Theodore W. Burgh

Eclectic perfectly describes Teddy Burgh. His interests and passions are varied and wide spread. In addition to writing stories and books, he teaches, composes and performs music. Burgh is also an Associate Professor and archaeologist who works in the Middle East and Sicily. Mysteries and crime shows along with his other interests were a part of Burgh’s early life. He welcomed the challenge of trying to figure out who did it, why, and how. His inquisitive nature, love for research, and desire to write contribute to his construction of stories. Burgh has previously published Listening to the Artifacts with T&T Clark. This work won the Klaus Westermann Award from the Society Ethnomusicology.

Check out the review from Dr Teresa Reed, Professor of Music at the University of Tulsa and the author of the Holy Profane: Religion in Black Popular Music:

“Anyone who loves black popular music will find this work to be a masterful blend of scholarship, memoir, and nostalgia.”

Book signings are coming soon!
