Matt Thorn

Matt Thorn (born May 12, 1965) is a cultural anthropologist and an Associate Professor in the Department of Manga Production at Kyoto Seika University's Faculty of Manga in Japan.[1][2][3] He is most well known in North America for his work dealing with shōjo manga. He has appeared at multiple anime conventions, including Otakon 2004.[4] He chose to translate shōjo manga into English after reading Thomas no Shinzō by Moto Hagio in the mid-1980s.[5]

In March 2010 it was announced that Thorn would edit a line of manga co-published by Shogakukan and Fantagraphics.[6]
