Autorenporträt
Hua Foley was born in Beijing, China. During her first sixteen years she was a communist believer before discovering the truth of the outside world. In the Mao era, she listened to music played on a record player kept hidden under the floor, read banned books sneaked out from locked library rooms, and became resentful of the cruel world she lived in. After receiving her Master's degree in communications, she became a university lecturer and the first to introduce public relations into Chinese university classes. Later, she joined a public opinion research team that helped the premier carry out free-market reform. Following the Tiananmen massacre, she was hunted by martial law soldiers for passing military deployment information to student protesters, forcing her to set out on a harrowing journey of escape to freedom. She arrived in the United States in 1990, and received her second Master's from Harvard University in 1994. She worked for multinational companies as a business consultant and communications specialist in Boston, Hong Kong, Beijing, and Shanghai. Her short narrative nonfiction, A Crack in Everything, was published in Mount Hope magazine in February 2022.
