"TIME Inc.'s researchers are conspicuous because they are women," noted one 1944 pamphlet for employeesThanks to the Museum of Chinese in America for profiling Li Ling-Ai during Women's History Month. Stream the film about her: vimeo.com/ondemand/findingkukan and www.kanopy.com/product/finding-kukanFor the final week of Women's History Month, we'll be honoring a spectacular women each day! Today’s #WCW is Li Ling-Ai, noted Chinese American film producer and the brain behind the first Oscar-winning documentary! Born in Hawaii on May 19, 1908, Li Ling-Ai, or Gladys Li as she was known by her family and friends, was the daughter of Chinese immigrant doctors. In 1941, the documentary Kukan won an honorary Academy Award for its superb storytelling of Chinese resistance against Japan in World War II. Li’s invaluable contributions as a co-producer and sponsor of the documentary went unnoticed; the white director Rey Scott received the Oscar and she was simply listed as “Technical Advisor.” In addition to her producing work, she was also a confidante for Ripley’s Believe It Or Not, dancer, relief worker, and theater director. Li Ling-Ai was a trailblazer in film and critical to how we understand documentaries, and our #WCW as well!
