Biographical Note
Huang Xinbo 黃新波 (1916-1980), reporter, guerilla fighter, and woodcut artist, was born in Guangdong Province, China. He attended
the Shanghai-based League of Left-Wing Writers and League of Left-Wing Artists in 1933, and became a disciple of leading figure
of modern Chinese literature, Lu Xun 鲁迅. Huang created the Association of Chinese Woodcuts in 1936. He worked as a reporter
in Hong Kong between 1946 and 1949 before returning to Guangdong in 1949 to serve as a guerilla member of the Communist Party's
East River Column 东江纵队. During the Cultural Revolution (1966-1976), Huang was purged and forced to write confession materials,
but he remained active creating a variety of woodcuts before his death.
Scope and Content of Collection
The collection consists of handwritten notebooks from the Cultural Revolution containing Huang Xinbo's confessions, investigations,
political learning records, work duties, and censorship materials. It also includes rare photographs of China and Hong Kong
from the 1940s-1960s, CCP government certificates, and a photograph album relating to the East River Column 东江纵队, an anti-Japanese
Communist guerrilla army that operated in southern China and Hong Kong during the Second Sino-Japanese War (1937-1945).
