Shan Woo Liu

Shan Woo Liu is an emergency medicine physician at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston and an associate professor at Harvard Medical School. Masked Hero, her publishing debut, was inspired by her daughter's first-grade project about her great-grandfather Dr. Wu Lien-teh, written in early 2020. Both mother and daughter are proud to share the story of Dr. Wu and help children understand that heroes come in all shapes, sizes, genders, and races. They aim to increase representation through sharing this story. www.shanwooliu.com. Headshot photo by Kendal Bush.
