Guihwa Hwang was born in Korea and came to the U.S. in 1989. She has worked as a reporter for Korean language newspapers for many years, covering stories about immigrant communities, culture and education. In 1996, she won a grant from the Daesan Foundation to translate major Korean literature into English. Since the birth of her daughter, she has continued freelancing as a translator and reporter. Her passion for introducing Korean heritage and texts to an English-speaking audience is reflected in her Feral Press stories, which are improvisations on Korean legends.
