A'misa Chiu. Librarian. Zinester.

Hi, I’m A’misa Chiu, a librarian and zinester. I hope this can be a space of idea generation. I’ll be doing some zine writing in here, as well as using it as a holding space for my ideas to better my librarianship as well. It may sometimes function as my online journal.

My grandmother, Sumie Sue Nakaoka Matsushima in her office at Matsushima Realty in Gardena, CA. I drew this from a photo of her at her desk. She was the executive secretary for my grandfather, Isamu Sam Matsushima who sold houses in Los Angeles in the 80s and 90s. She had a knack for numbers.
