Timeline

1950

Frances Chung (5 September 1950 – 8 December 1990) was an American poet.

Frances Chung (born 1950) was born and raised in New York City's Chinatown, Manhattan.

Chung attended Smith College for mathematics, joining the Peace Corps for two years after to serve in Central and South America.

She later returned to New York City to teach the same subject in its public schools.

1990

Chung died on December 8, 1990, of complications from cancer.

While receiving surgery for a brain tumor and falling into a coma, doctors injected her with antibodies that she was allergic to, unbeknownst to them.

Chung's poems, with their snapshot-like qualities, are said to question conventional ideas of the onlooker's gaze, such as those of a tourist ethnic neighborhoods like New York's gentrifying Chinatown.

In his New York Times review of Crazy Melon and Chinese Apple, Michael Hainey wrote that William Carlos Williams was a possible influence for Chung's "compact and oddly moving narratives."

Publishers Weekly also cites similarities to Carlos in Chung's poems' "generosity, unorthodox line-breaks and beauty."

2000

Her only collection, Crazy Melon and Chinese Apple: The Poems of Frances Chung, was compiled and released posthumously in 2000, edited by Walter K. Lew.
