Frank Chin was born in 1940 to a Chinese immigrant father and a fourth-generation Chinese American mother. He attended University of California at Berkeley and in 1959 he left Berkeley for a fellowship at the Iowa Writer's Workshop. He ended up graduating with an English degree from University of California at Santa Barbara. He also worked as a brakeman on the railroad. He emerged in the literary scene in 1970 when he was published in the anthology 19 Necromancers from Now (1970). The criticism he received for his controversial work pushed him to respond with his own substantial body of literary history and criticism.
