Annmaria Shimabuku Professor Shimabuku earned a B.A. in Japanese Language and Literature from Middlebury College, fulfilled course requirements for the Ph.D. program in Sociology at Tokyo University, and is currently completing her dissertation entitled "Transpacific Colonialism: A Genealogy of Sex, Nation, and Mixed-Blood in Okinawa" to earn a Ph.D. in East Asian Literature from Cornell University. Her research on US-Okinawan miscegenation in Okinawa is carried out both empirically and theoretically through postcolonial studies within the context of Japanese Empire, the gendered impact of militarized violence, and Okinawan literature. In her efforts to put transpacific studies into practice, she is committed to a bilingual address, and has consistently published articles in Japanese and English since 2001.
