She is Strategic Communications Director at the International Security Industry Council of Japan, a think tank on defense, security, and national interest issues.
Dr. Snow held faculty teaching appointments at the top-ranked Newhouse School at Syracuse University and Annenberg School at the University of Southern California. She received her doctorate in International Relations from American University’s School of International Service in Washington, D.C., ranked as a Top-10 IR program in the world.
At AU/SIS, she studied under Nicholas Onuf (constructivism); Dudley Weeks and Abdul Aziz Said (peace and conflict resolution studies); Gary Weaver, Mitchell Hammer, and Hamid Mowlana (intercultural and international communication). Beyond AU, her bookend scholarly mentors were George Gerbner and Herbert Schiller, along with an honorable mention from Howard Zinn, whose post-9/11 Orange County co-venture she reveals in “Information War: American Propaganda, Free Speech, and Opinion Control Since 9/11.” Joseph Nye has supported her writing pursuits from Edward R.

Snow has published fifteen books, most recently The Mystery of Japan’s Information Power (Bunshindo, 2022); two 2020 imprints, Routledge Handbook of Public Diplomacy second edition with Nicholas Cull, and the late great Philip M. Taylor of the University of Leeds, with whom she co-edited the first edition of the Routledge Handbook of Public Diplomacy. Snow also co-edited The SAGE Handbook of Propaganda with Paul Baines and Nicholas O’Shaughnessy. In addition, her work is available in nine other translations.
Snow is lead author, with Garth Jowett and Victoria O’Donnell, of the 8th edition of Propaganda and Persuasion (Sage, 2024). She is under contract with the Naval Institute Press to publish a book, Battleship Diplomat: The Enduring Soul of the Mighty Mo, about the USS Missouri in a public diplomacy context. This book is in tribute to her father, BB-63 Naval Ensign Victor Donald Snow, Sr. (Rice/MIT), who participated in the March-May 1946 Mediterranean Cruise to Turkey, Greece, Italy, Algiers and Morocco, a successful reestablishment of the U.S. Navy’s presence in what would soon become the “Cold War” home waters of the Sixth Fleet.
