Margot Lipin is a Ph.D. candidate in Jurisprudence and Social Policy at Berkeley Law. Margot’s research lies at the intersection of legal history, policing, and culture. Her dissertation examines the role of fashion in the construction of racialized and gendered deviance in turn-of-the-century New York, investigating the process by which individuals were clothed with legal status according to their dress and appearance. Prior to Berkeley, she received her B.A. in History and Political Science from Wellesley College.
