Yoshio Kishi was an award-winning New York City-based film and sound editor. For four
decades, Kishi has been an avid collector of materials that trace the depiction of
Asian Americans in U.S. intellectual and popular culture, and of materials produced
by Asian American activists to counter such cultural stereotypes. This collection
contains movie posters, magazines, cartoons, comic books, films, sheet music, objects,
and other items collected by Kishi that depict Asians and Asian Americans throughout
the 19th and 20th centuries in America.
