About
Ivy Ashe is a full-time faculty member in the SCMS and joined the department in the summer of 2022. As a former community news reporter and photographer, she is deeply invested in research that investigates the role journalism plays in structuring the public’s sense of place, particularly places best known as tourist or seasonal destinations. “I use mixed methods in my work, focusing on interviews, surveys, and textual analyses.”
She grew up on the Gulf Coast in Naples and Bonita Springs. In her free time, Ashe likes to do indoor rock climbing, film photography, and gardening.
Background
The Vineyard Gazette in Edgartown, Mass., and the Hawaii Tribune-Herald in Hilo, Hawaii
Awards & Achievements
Her work in journalism has been recognized by the New England Newspaper & Press Association, and the Society for Professional Journalists (Hawai‘i chapter).
Ashe has presented her research at mass communication conferences in the United States, Canada, and Belgium, and received Top Paper awards for both solo work (Association for Education in Mass Communication and Journalism Visual Communication Division) and co-authored projects (AEJMC Community Journalism Interest Group). Her published work appears in Media, Culture & Society, International Journal of Public Opinion Research, and Newspaper Research Journal.
