About Me

My Photo
Xujun Eberlein
Boston, United States
In summer 1988, I moved from Chongqing, China to Boston. After receiving a Ph.D. from MIT in spring 1995, and winning an award for my dissertation, I joined a small but ambitious high tech company. On Thanksgiving 2003, I gave up algorithms for writing. For further information about my fiction and nonfiction works and literary awards, or to contact me, check out www.xujuneberlein.com.
