About the author

My name is also listed as Aaron Andrew Gerow. I teach Japanese and East Asian cinema and culture at Yale University in the USA. My most recent books are Visions of Japanese Modernity: Articulations of Cinema, Nation, and Spectatorship, 1895-1925; Kitano Takeshi; and A Page of Madness: Cinema and Modernity in 1920s Japan. I've also written the Research Guide to Japanese Film Studies with Abe Mark Nornes. Before coming to Yale, I spent nearly 12 years in Japan working for the Yamagata International Documentary Film Festival and teaching at Yokohama National University and Meiji Gakuin University. I have published numerous works in English, Japanese and other languages on such topics as Japanese early cinema, contemporary directors, film genre, censorship, Japanese manga, and cinematic representations of minorities. I wrote film reviews for the Daily Yomiuri newspaper for nearly 12 years and selected the best ten Japanese films of the year for Eiga geijutsu, one of Japan's longest running film magazines.
