Sarah Kovner's research and teaching focus on Japanese History, Gender History, and International History. She received her A.B. from Princeton in 1995 and her Ph.D. from Columbia in 2004. Her current project, "Occupying Power: Sex Workers and Servicemen in Postwar Japan," uses social history to analyze how people experience the loss of empire and re-negotiate national sovereignty. She is also the author of an article forthcoming in the Journal of Asian Studies, "When Flesh Glittered: Sex Markets in Occupied Japan."
