Anna May Wong – Not Your China Doll

Mar 14 at 8:00 PM - 9:30 PM

Celebrate the trailblazing life of Anna May Wong, the first Chinese American movie star, at Metrograph!

Asian CineVision is proud to co-present a special screening of DAUGHTER OF SHANGHAI, starring Wong as a detective who teams up with a Korean American actor to solve a crime. This is a rare opportunity to see a film with two Asian American leads from the 1930s.

Before the screening, enjoy a discussion with author Katie Gee Salisbury and New Yorker writer Mayukh Sen, who will be discussing Salisbury’s new biography, NOT YOUR CHINA DOLL: THE WILD AND SHIMMERING LIFE OF ANNA MAY WONG.

We’ve set aside some sponsored tickets for those working on a script, role, or other creative work inspired by Anna May Wong. For more information and to apply for sponsored tickets, please fill out this form.
