It was only coming back, when my friends were the graduate students, that I realized the structural voicelessness that puts people in a position to feel powerless. When you were there, Jane’s story had become almost a myth—a tale that represented the dangers of being female in academia rather than a factual event. There’s a quote in the book: “Some realities need to be fictionalized in order to be apprehended.” The version of it that I had inherited, the version that stayed alive before the case was solved, was that her adviser had killed her because they had an affair. As I get deeper into the investigation, I don’t think at all that he’s the murderer. And so my question is both who killed Jane—but also why is this the story that has such a hold on this community? What is it trying to gesture at? [What’s] contained within this myth? I was reverse engineering that quote, where it’s like, All right, here’s the fiction, what’s the reality? Here’s reality for me. There’s a 2018 study that was done by the National Academies of Sciences that shows that 50% of female faculty have experienced sexual harassment. In the last three decades in the anthropology department, of the withdrawals from the program, 87% were female. The past is not that distant.
Vogue spoke with Cooper about her own time at Harvard, the true-crime explosion in pop culture, and separating fiction from reality. What was your own experience like at Harvard? I had a very wonderful lucky time at Harvard. I think I was made to feel like my past—I grew up in a household where ordering a drink with dinner was an unnecessary indulgence—didn’t matter at all. Only later did I realize what some of my friends had.
