Yvon Wang is an Assistant Professor of Chinese History at the University of Toronto, St. George. She earned her Ph.D. in 2014 from the History Department of Stanford University. Her dissertation concerned explicit sexual representation in Chinese print commodities at the turn of the twentieth century. Other research interests include same-sex relations, material culture, and popular media--both in late imperial and twentieth-century China and in a broader world-historical perspective.
