Anna D. Fox

Doctoral Candidate in Sociology

Welcome! I am a PhD Candidate in Sociology at the University of Chicago who uses interview, archival, and geospatial methods to examine questions about gender, family, race, and violence in the empirical context of policing. Across several projects, I investigate how police violence shapes and is shaped by different structures of gender and sexuality, and how this dynamic relationship relates to racial inequality. My work has been funded by the Russell Sage Foundation, the American Bar Foundation and the Institute for Humane Studies, and has won awards from the American Sociological Association and the Society for the Study of Social Problems. My research can be found in Social Problems and Gender & Society. You can get in touch with me at annafox@uchicago.edu.
