Hannah Schiller

Hannah Rosa Schiller (2021) is a PhD student in Music History. Originally from Chicago, she holds a BM in Music Theory and a BA in Psychology from Northwestern University, as well as an MSt in Musicology from Oxford University, for which she earned a distinction. Hannah is interested in ‘feminist’ music-making in its many forms in mid-to-late twentieth-century Britain, spanning from the protest music of the Women’s Liberation Movement to the explosion of girl power media. Her research at Yale has been supported by the Whitney and Betty MacMillan Center for International and Area Studies and the A. Bartlett Giamatti Memorial Graduate Fellowships in the Humanities Fund.

Outside of her academic work, Hannah sings, runs, rows, hammocks, and cares for her many houseplants.
