Her area of teaching and research specialty straddles Asian American cultural studies, comparative ethnic studies, women’s studies, autoethnography, and visual culture. Elena Creef is the author of Imaging Japanese America: The Visual Construction of Citizenship, Nation, and the Body (New York University Press, 2004)—a work that revisits the visual archive surrounding the world war II and postwar Japanese American internment experience. Her work has been published in Visual Anthropology Review, Qualitative Inquiry, Amerasia Journal, and Gloria Anzaldua’s Haciendo Caras: Making Face, Making Soul. She is presently at work on a new book that charts the visual histories of Asian women in America and an edited anthology that examines the life and work of Japanese American artist, Mine Okubo, Following Her Own Road forthcoming out of the University of Washington Press. Elena Creef teaches courses on Asian American film and video, Asian American literature, and representations of women, natives, and others in the U.S. and the Pacific Rim. |
