She is well known for her typology of information statuses in discourse, basing her conclusions on the study of naturally occurring data. She also analyzed the pragmatic functions of syntactic constructions in English and Yiddish, including varieties of cleft and left-periphery constructions, such as topicalization and left-dislocation. She served as the President of the Linguistic Society of America in 2008. She was elected as a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in 2009. ==Publications== *''On the limits of syntax, with reference to left-dislocation and topicalization'' - Prince.
