Patricia Drew, a sociologist, was raised in Portland, Oregon. After graduating from college, she moved to rural Bluff, Utah to volunteer in Americorps VISTA. As she worked with schoolchildren, she became interested in how social institutions and locations help to shape individuals' lives. She further developed sociological interests in gender, sexuality, social psychology, and health during her graduate studies at Portland State University and the University of California, Santa Barbara. In her research, Professor Drew has examined the impact of social location and cultural messages on individuals' health and bodies. Her studies includes examinations of intergenerational body messages, the development of weight loss surgery and related identity transformation, and gendered messages in contemporary sex education films. Professor Drew teaches courses on social research, gender development, embodiment and the life course.
