milkman's grandparents emigrated to the united states around 1910, and the family's last name was bestowed on them by an immigration official at ellis island. while both of milkman's parents were born and raised in brooklyn, and eventually attended brooklyn college, milkman was raised in annapolis, maryland where her father was an instructor at the united states naval academy. milkman attributes her interest in labor to an incident in her childhood, where, when shopping with her mother in new york city, the two encountered a international ladies' garment workers' union picket line, which her mother refused to cross. milkman obtained a bachelor's degree in 1975 from brown university, where created her own major with an emphasis in women's studies. she was awarded a master of arts in sociology in 1977 and a ph.d. in sociology in 1981, both from the university of california, berkeley. milkman was drawn to berkeley because of the left-wing political activity of the 1960s that had taken place there. while at berkeley, milkman was an editor of "socialist review", which later became "radical society".
