The chapters in this book contain the experiences of a group of influential women academics who have dedicated their lives to prison research. Their stories detail the methodological challenges they experienced and the novel strategies they used while doing research in prison.
This book looks deeply at women researchers’ personal stories, struggles, and successes within the context of conducting research in the male-dominated sphere of prison studies. Their insights provide an analytical resource from which readers can better understand the context of doing prison research and the theoretical and methodological challenges that come with it. Their autoethnographic stories shed light on the unique issues faced by women prison researchers and provide a roadmap for understanding the novel strategies, methodological landmines, and epistemological challenges for those who will come after them. Their experiences as women investigators are couched in a distinct set of challenges. This book is intended to highlight those researchers’ challenges and also, to celebrate their successes.

Jennifer A. Schlosser is assistant professor of sociology at Coastal Carolina University.
