About the Author

Iris Chang was born in Princeton New Jersey on March 28, 1968. Both of her parents were university professors who had immigrated from China. She earned a bachelor's degree in journalism in 1989 and worked for the New York Times, the Chicago Herald Tribune and the Associated Press before starting on a career of writing books. Her second book was this book about the Rape of Nanjing. This book made her famous, a celebrity. However, due to the nature of this book, it also subjected her to criticism. It made her known as one of the major advocates of a Congressional resolution to urge the Japanese government to apologize for war crimes. She met with First Lady Hillary Clinton in 1999 to discuss this issue. Iris Chang suffered a nervous breakdown because of working too hard by touring America giving speeches and interviews promoting her books while also working on her next book about the Bataan Death March. In August, 2004, a man who was assisting her research helped her check into Norton Psychiatric Hospital in Louisville, Kentucky, where she was placed on medication for three days and then released to her parents. On November 9, 2004, she was found dead in her car near her home in San Jose, California of an apparent suicide.
