Mirya R. Holman, PhD is an Associate Professor of Political Science at Tulane University, where she conducts research at the intersection of gender politics and political behavior.
Her research focuses on gender dynamics in political contexts, with particular emphasis on gender and children's political socialization, local appointed boards and commissions, and the political consequences of the MeToo movement. Her work explores how gender shapes political participation, representation, and institutional dynamics at various levels of government.
Dr. Holman is the author of the book Women in Politics in the American City (Temple University Press, 2015), which examines the experiences and challenges of women serving in municipal government positions across the United States. Her research contributes significantly to our understanding of gender representation in local politics and the barriers women face in political institutions.
Her scholarly work demonstrates consistent engagement with contemporary political issues, particularly how social movements like MeToo reshape political landscapes and influence women's political engagement. The patterns in her research reveal a strong commitment to understanding gender dynamics in both formal political institutions and everyday political socialization processes.
