Summary
Marcus Bingenheimer is an associate professor based in Philadelphia with over a decade of academic experience bridging religious studies, information science, and library leadership. Trained with a Dr. in the History of Religions from Julius-Maximilians-Universität Würzburg, he has taught at Temple University since 2011 and previously directed a library and information center while serving on the faculty at Dharma Drum Buddhist College.
