Professor O’Connor earned a Ph.D. in Sociology at the New School for Social Research in 2009. Her dissertation, “HOTSHOP: An Ethnography of Embodied Knowledge in Glassblowing”, which drew from three years of ethnographic research in a glassblowing studio, analyzes the relations between the body, imagination, work practices, materiality, knowledge and culture. She is currently editing this manuscript for book publication, specifically theorizing how contemporary artisanship facilitates the production of self within a consumer economy.
