In 1990, Harrington earned a bachelor's degree in English literature from Stanford University. In 1996, Harrington earned a master's degree in sociology from Harvard University, followed by a PhD degree in sociology there in 1999.

From 1999 to 2007, Harrington was assistant professor of Sociology and Public Policy at Brown University. From 2006 to 2009, she was a research fellow at the Max Planck Institute for the Study of Societies in Cologne. She was a professor of economic sociology at the Copenhagen Business School from 2010 to 2018.

She is an advocate against xenophobia.

In January 2019, she became a professor of sociology at Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire.
