From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki


Daisy Deomampo is a medical and cultural anthropologist and she is currently an assistant professor of Anthropology at Fordham University.[1][2] She received her Bachelor's in Linguistics and Spanish as a double major at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 1998. In 2004, she received her Master's in International Affairs at The New School. In 2013 she received her Doctorate degree in Anthropology from The Graduate Center of the City University of New York. Her most recent work is her book published in 2016, Transnational Reproduction: Race, Kinship, and Commercial Surrogacy in India.[3]

Most Recent Work[edit]

Daisy Deomampo's latest work is her book, "Transnational Reproduction: Race, Kinship, and Commercial Surrogacy in India".[1] This book is about the different roles that relationships between parent, doctor and surrogate mothers experience while focusing on delivering a baby. Her fieldwork was done in Mumbai, India from 2013-2014.[4][5] The book also focuses on the implications behind stratified reproduction and its effects on the surrogate mothers. She has received praise for her work from multiple anthropologists, including Rayna Rapp: "Deomampo shows in exquisite detail how racialized fantasies, stereotypes, and prejudices knot together the long-distance, cross-border threads of intimate commerce and citizenship involved in Indian surrogacy. European, North American, Australian, and other commissioning parents are connected to their Indian surrogates and entrepreneurial providers through diverse legal and social connections, yet all involve prior powerful notions of race at the heart of transnational family-making. This focus enriches and complicates discussions of Indian surrogacy."[6]

Prior to publishing her book, "Transnational Reproduction: Race, Kinship and Commercial Surrogacy in India", she was invited to present on her findings at the Ethics and Society luncheon at Fordham University in early 2016.[7] After the publication of her work, she was also invited to speak at the South Asia Center at Syracuse University.[8] Her research with surrogacy and assisted reproductive technologies has garnered attention as she explores these topics more in depth.

Awards and Recognitions[edit]

In 2009, she received a Dissertation Fieldwork Grant to assist with research on "The New Global 'Division of Labor': Reproductive Tourism in Mumbai, India", as a doctoral candidate at the Graduate Center at the City University of New York. The research was supervised by Dr. Leith Mullings.[9] In 2013 she received the Engaged Anthropology Grant to return to the field site in Mumbai, India [9]
