關於作者 (2010)

A Philadelphia native, Chris started off his university years studying classical Chinese poetry before a week in 1990s Shàngh?i (en route to school in K?nmíng) abruptly changed his focus to the idiosyncrasies of modern China. After spending several years in Asia memorising Chinese characters, he abruptly traded it all in and moved to Paris, where he currently lives with his family: Perrine, Elliot and Céleste. He works as a freelance writer, editor and translator for a number of publishers, including Columbia University Press, and has contributed to three editions of Lonely Planet's China.
