Dalton Conley

Bio

Dalton Conley is a prolific writer, sociology professor, and New York original. His first memoir Honky reads like fiction while putting his 1970s childhood in the Lower East Side tenements into the context of wider laws of race and class. A few books later in Parentology, he shares the evidence-based experiments he applied to his children. Right now he is teaching at Princeton University, studying at Brooklyn College, writing a new memoir, and updating his sociology textbook, You May Ask Yourself… An Introduction to Thinking Like A Sociologist.
