Jodi O'Brien is Associate Professor of Sociology at Seattle University. She co-edited with Peter Kollock The Production of Reality, 2nd edition, (1997). She writes and lectures in the area of cultural politics, marginal identities and communities. Judith A. Howard is Professor of Sociology at the University of Washington. She lectures and researches in the area of gender and the intersections of gender dynamics with race, class and sexuality. She is currently co-editing SIGNS: Journal of Women in Culture and Society.

"O'Brien and Howard have brought together an engaging and lively collection of articles that demonstrate the various ways that people create, re-create, and sometimes challenge social inequalities in our everyday interactions. This collection challenges the current simplistic tendency to see the 'doing of difference' as mere racial, gender, social class, or sexual 'performance'; Instead, the authors in Everyday Inequalities creatively illuminate various situations - in media, workplaces, the arts, or the street-in which people are actively negotiating their identities and their positions within socially-structured contexts of inequality." Michael A. Messner, University of Southern California
