Her upcoming book Data are Made\, Not Found: A Story of Politics\, Power\, and the Civil Servants Who Saved the US Census is an ethnography of the US Census Bureau\, Jenga politics\, and the struggle to make democracy’s data.

She received a bachelor’s degree in computer science from Brown University\, a master’s degree from the MIT Media Lab\, and a Ph.D in Information from the University of California\, Berkeley. \n\n\n\nColette Perold researches the relationship between media technologies\, labor and U.S. foreign policy\, specifically the ways in which multinational IT companies shape U.S. foreign policy priorities in Latin America. Her current project draws from the business history of computing and political economy of media industries to analyze the relationship between the U.S.-based IT sector and U.S. foreign policy in Brazil prior to modern computing. Her research has been funded by various sources including the Hagley Library\, the Tinker Foundation\, and the Charles Babbage Institute\, where she received the 2019-2020 Tomash Fellowship.
