Carlos Bulosan

Carlos Bulosan (1911-1956), born in Binalonan, Pangasinan under U.S. colonial occupation of the Philippines, arrived in the United States at the start of the Great Depression as part of a generation of Filipino migrant workers. From 1930 to 1956, Bulosan developed into a leading Filipino writer in the United States committed to social justice. In the 1930s, Harriet Monroe of Poetry magazine introduced Bulosan to the literary world as a poet. His editing of The New Tide (1934), a Filipino workers' literary magazine, connected Bulosan to progressive American writers such as Richard Wright and Sanora Babb. Bulosan established his position as a major Filipino writer with The Laughter of My Father (1944) and America Is in the Heart (1946). An iconic figure of Filipino American literature, Bulosan was recovered by the Asian American movement and the Philippine national sovereignty movement of the 1970s. The central figure in introducing and situating Bulosan within Asian American Studies and Philippine Studies for over four decades is the internationally renowned Filipino literary scholar and cultural theorist E. San Juan, Jr.

Jeffrey Arellano Cabusao is an associate professor in the Department of English and Cultural Studies at Bryant University in Smithfield, Rhode Island. During the 2006-2007 academic year, he was a Mellon Postdoctoral Teaching Fellow in the Department of English at Kalamazoo College. He received a 2011 Early Career Educator of Color Leadership Award from the National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE). His teaching and research focus on U.S. Ethnic Studies (specifically comparative approaches to Asian American and African American Studies), Cultural Studies (literary and cultural theory, media literacy, critical pedagogies), and Women's Studies (feminist movement and social change). In 2016 he edited Writer in Exile/Writer in Revolt: Critical Perspectives on Carlos Bulosan which gathers pioneering essays by major scholars in Filipino American Studies, American Studies, and Philippine Studies as well as historical documents on Carlos Bulosan's work and life for the first time.
