Amy Chua is a professor at Yale Law School and the author of several influential non-fiction books. She became widely known with Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother (2011), a memoir about her strict parenting approach that sparked international debate about child-rearing, education, and cultural expectations. Before that book, she had already established herself as a serious voice on globalization with World on Fire (2002) and Day of Empire (2007).

Her later non-fiction includes The Triple Package (2014), co-written with her husband Jed Rubenfeld, and Political Tribes (2018), which examines how group identity drives conflict both domestically and abroad. In 2023, she published her first novel, The Golden Gate, moving into fiction after two decades of academic and popular non-fiction writing.
