Stephen Richard Turley, known professionally as Dr. Steve Turley, is an American conservative political commentator, YouTube personality, author, and former classical guitarist. He is also a professor of world music and aesthetics at Eastern University in St. Davids, Pennsylvania,[1] as well as a theology and rhetoric teacher at Tall Oaks Classical School in Bear, Delaware.[2]
As a writer, Turley has contributed to The Christian Post,[3] The Imaginative Conservative,[4] Touchstone,[5] and published two books through Classical Academic Press.[6][7] Additionally, he analyzes current events worldwide as they relate to politically conservative trends both on his website, Turley Talks, and on YouTube under the channel name Dr. Steve Turley.
Career
In the 1990s, Turley was a classical guitarist, receiving a Certificate of Merit at the 1991 Nicolo Paganini International Guitar Competition.[1] He later won First Prize in the Philadelphia Classical Guitar Competition and the Baltimore Music Competition, as well as earning the Hos Award in Guitar for Outstanding Achievement.[1] He would go on to study classical guitar at the Peabody Conservatory of Music.[8] In 1999, Turley appeared on an episode of Christian Broadcasting Network's The 700 Club to perform a song from his debut album, Soli Deo Gloria.[9][10]
Turley's teaching career began in 1998 at Eastern University in St. Davids, Pennsylvania, where he serves on the faculty part-time as a professor of world music and aesthetics.[1] He recalled the need for a career change as coinciding with getting married and having his first child, saying, "That's when touring became torturous."[8] In 2002, Turley started teaching full-time at Tall Oaks Classical School (now located in Bear, Delaware), where he currently teaches theology and rhetoric and has previously taught Greek.[2] Turley received his Doctor of Philosophy from Durham University in 2013, exploring rituals in early Christianity as seen in Galatians and 1 Corinthians.[11]
In 2014, Turley launched the media platform Turley Talks, analyzing current events relating to Christianity and political conservatism.[8] His corresponding YouTube channel has amassed over 60,000 subscribers as of August 2018.[12]
