Monica Chiu is Professor of English and American Studies at the University of New Hampshire. She is the editor of Drawing New Color Lines: Transnational Asian American Graphic Narratives.

“Monica Chiu demonstrates that the highly personalized rendering of illness experience in graphic pathographies provides readers with an embodied illness perspective that significantly differs from biomedical and clinical accounts, diagnoses, and understandings of illness. Her study on how drawing in graphic pathographies functions to retell and reimagine illness from an ill individual’s perspective is poised to make a foundational contribution to a field of study that is just now reaching maturation.”—Nancy Pedri, Memorial University of Newfoundland
