She is co-executive editor of the journal ''Public Seminar''.

Potter received a BA from Yale University, where she studied English literature and worked for the ''Yale Daily News'', and a PhD from New York University.

From 2006 to 2015, Potter wrote a blog called The Tenured Radical; it was hosted by ''The Chronicle of Higher Education'' from 2011 onward.

Her 2020 book ''Political Junkies'' was described in ''Publishers Weekly'' as "an illuminating rundown of historical trends in political journalism, from New Deal–era consensus building to today's super-partisan echo chambers".

In 2025, Potter vociferously defended the American Historical Association elected council's veto of its member's resolution opposing scholasticide in Gaza. Provided by Wikipedia
