Hugh R. Clark (Professor Emeritus, Ursinus College) earned a Ph.D. in middle period Chinese social history at the University of Pennsylvania in 1981. He has been a member of the Ursinus faculty since shortly thereafter.

Prof. Clark has a passionate interest in Asian history and culture. He has been to both China and Japan numerous times, most recently as leader of the initial Ursinus-in-Beijing semester in the fall, 2011. His scholarship has often taken him to the region of southern Fujian province on China’s southeast coast where he has done field work in both social and cultural history. This has involved collecting rare documents, visiting village shrines and festivals, and exploring remote sites of historical interest.
