Hannah Shaffer
Assistant Professor of Law, Harvard Law School
I am an assistant professor at Harvard Law School. My research examines racial disparities in criminal charging and sentencing--specifically how prosecutors interpret and respond to racial disparities inherited from police and earlier decision-makers in the criminal process.
Previously, I was a Bigelow Fellow at the University of Chicago Law School. I received a doctorate in Economics at Harvard University and a J.D. at Harvard Law School.
