Race and Role: The Mixed-Race Asian Experience in American Drama
My monograph Race and Role: The Mixed-Race Asian Experience in American Drama from Rutgers University Press traces the shifting identities of multiracial Asian figures in theater from the late-nineteenth century to the present day. Mixed-Asian playwrights harness theater’s generative power to enact performances of “double liminality” and expose the absurd tenacity with which society clings to a tenuous racial scaffolding.
Race and Role garnered the 2025 Phi Kappa Phi Faculty Recognition Award at USC.

Border Crossings: Exile and American Modern Dance
Race and Role: The Mixed-Race Asian Experience in American Drama
Race and Role: The Mixed-Race Asian Experience in American Drama
Border Crossings challenges accepted histories of dance modernism to consider how war, exile, inequality, and injustice shaped twentieth century performance art. This collection from New York Public Library for the Performing Arts and UC Santa Barbara is the outgrowth of a bi-coastal exhibition that demonstrates how exiled and marginalized artists catalyzed modern dance, giving voice to crucial issues of geopolitical circumstance and structural racism. Crossing Borders—physical, geographic, racial, artistic, spiritual—either by choice or by force, became a historical circumstance out of people's control. These crossings are woven into the grammar of “the modern” in dance. They are its DNA.
