From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Nicole Holliday is an American socio-phonetician and Assistant Professor in the Department of Linguistics and Cognitive Science at Pomona College in Claremont, California. [1][2] Holliday received her Ph.D. in linguistics from New York University, and her BA in linguistics and Spanish from The Ohio State University. [2]She is also Chair of the Linguistic Society America’s Committee on Ethnic Diversity in Linguistics. [2]

Holliday’s studies focus on different ways of how people use linguistic variation to construct their social identities and the interaction between what people hear in someone’s voice and the judgments they make about their identity, especially with respect to race.[3] Her Ph.D. dissertation focused on how people with one black parent and one white parent use variation in language to form their own identities.
