My name is Marcy Shieh. I am currently an Assistant Professor in the Department of Political Science at Miami University in Ohio.

I study American politics with a concentration in judicial politics. My research interests examine the influence of political elites, the mass public, and advocacy groups on the behavior and media coverage of justices on state and federal courts. I apply methods, such as text analysis and survey experiments, to conduct my work. My work has been published or is forthcoming in Research & Politics, Political Research Quarterly, American Politics Research, Social Science Quarterly, Open Judicial Politics, and the Research Handbook of Judicial Politics.

I received my PhD in political science from the University of Wisconsin–Madison in 2023. I graduated from the University of California, Davis with a BA in political science and philosophy with a minor in statistics in 2014. Prior to graduate school, I worked as a technical project coordinator at a healthcare policy firm. I was Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Political Science and Public Administration at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte during the 2023-2024 school year.

In my spare time, I like hanging out with my cat, eating and cooking food, and watching films and television.
