About

Yinmi Yao is a writer and journalist working in Chinese and English.

This website brings together two strands of her work: new personal essays, and a selected archive of previously published journalism. The essay section is an evolving space for observation, memory, and writing about change. The journalism archive includes long-form reporting, profiles, and conversations.

Articles appear in the language in which they are available. Where an authorized translation exists, the two versions will be linked directly.
