About

 

David J. Frost majored in English at Columbia University, and has a doctorate in philosophy from the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill. He’s taught philosophy for more than a decade, including at UNC, North Carolina State University, Alamance Community College, and the University of Wisconsin, Stevens Point.

He has presented papers at the American Philosophical Association annual meeting, at the Northwest Philosophy Conference at Pacific University, at the New York University Comparative Literature Graduate Conference on Disagreement, and at the North Carolina Philosophical Society at Wake Forest.

Two chapters of How to Live Life as a Robot have been or will be published—in The Smart Set March 2021 and in the literary journal, Slab, February 2022.

Additional non-academic publishing includes an article about Nietzsche’s self-help lifestyle and diet recommendations in Philosophy Now, and the first chapter in the anthology HBO’s ‘Girls’ and Philosophy from Open Court’s Philosophy and Pop Culture Series, about how Adorno would have liked Lena Dunham’s “unlikable” characters.

Teaching online allows him to live on the Oregon coast, which he does with his partner Kelly and their two dogs Fritz and Lou Salomé.

At his local library, he will (post-COVID) be offering self-help classes, such as the best science-backed strategies to fight procrastination, as well as philosophy classes for the general public, such as “How to Develop Your Own Personal Philosophy of Life.”
