My Biography

Setha Low (PhD, UC Berkeley) is an expert in cultural anthropology. Dr. Low has conducted fieldwork on the Spanish-American plaza in Costa Rica; ethnography of gated communities in US and Mexico; ethnography of condos and coops in NYC; ethnographies of cultural diversity in urban US parks; medical systems in Costa Rica; and public space and social justice (comparative study, global). Dr. Low’s first AAA annual meeting was in 1970.

We want to express our concern for our members and colleagues in the potentially affected areas as we monitor Hurricane Milton. As we approach our Annual Meeting scheduled for November 20-23, we will keep you updated on any developments and how they may impact our plans in Tampa. In the meantime, we hope everyone stays safe and takes the necessary precautions.
