O'Connor first began blogging for IvyGate while a student at Princeton University, following stories such as the Yale student abortion art controversy in 2008. She moved to Gawker in November 2009. Among scoops she has been credited with breaking was a story about U.S. Congressman Chris Lee's solicitations for sexual partners via Craigslist in February 2011, quickly leading to Lee's resignation.
