Biography:


After earning a B.A. in English Literature from Cornell University, Dr. Flicker worked in advertising, then completed an M.B.A. and a Ph.D. in Marketing at The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania.  Experience gained with retail advertising clients, consulting work for the J. C. Penney Company, and an insatiable love of shopping led to specialization in marketing science techniques and information technology applications in retailing and e-business.

She               teaches in Fordham's Graduate School of Business Administration (GBA) and College of Business Administration                    (CBA), where she is Co-director of the CBA Honors Thesis program. She was  awarded a Distinguished Educator                   award by the Direct Marketing Education Foundation in October, 2000.
