Peterson earned her B.A. in Women’s Studies and Public Policy at Duke University and her M.A. at the Middlebury Bread Loaf School of English. She has spoken to audiences including TEDx, Duke, Cornell, Harvard, Middlebury, Tulane, Amazon GoodReads, and the National Women's History Museum, among others, and appeared on news programs such as "Good Morning Washington" and PIX11.
