==Biography==
Born in Romania, Schwarcz has taught Chinese history at Stanford University, Wesleyan University, as well as at Hebrew University in Jerusalem, Beijing University and Centre Chine in Paris. She is serving currently as Director of the Freeman Center for East Asian Studies and Chair of the East Asian Studies Program at Wesleyan. She is the author of eight books, including the prize-winning ''Bridge Across Broken Time: Chinese and Jewish Cultural Memory'' (Yale University Press, 1999) as well as ''Time for Telling Truth Is Running Out: Conversations with Zhang Shenfu'' (Yale, 1986); ''The Chinese Enlightenment'' (Berkeley, 1984), and ''Place and Memory in Singing Crane Garden'' (University of Pennsylvania Press, 2008). She is also the author of numerous books of poetry including ''A Scoop of Light'' and ''In The Garden of Memory''—a collaboration with the Prague-born Israeli artist Chava Pressburger, and ''Ancestral Intelligence''.
A recent book of hers () centers on the problem of truth in comparative history:
The Singing Crane Garden in northwest Beijing has a history dense with classical artistic vision, educational experimentation, political struggle, and tragic suffering. Built by the Manchu prince Mianyu in the mid-nineteenth century, the garden was intended to serve as a refuge from the clutter of daily life near the Forbidden City. In 1860, during the Anglo-French war in China, the garden was destroyed. One hundred years later, in the 1960s, the garden served as the "oxpens," where dissident university professors were imprisoned during the Cultural Revolution. Peaceful Western involvement began in 1986, when ground was broken for the Arthur Sackler Museum of Art and Archaeology. Completed in 1993, the Museum and the Jillian Sackler Sculpture Garden stand on the same grounds today.

Her most recent book (Schwarcz, Vera (2013). ''Ancestral Intelligence.'' Antrim House. ISBN 978-1-936482-49-8.) is a collection of poems written as though rendered by dissident poet Chen Yinke. Like his, her poems show a degradation of culture and humanity, in this case through comparison of classic and modern Chinese logographs.
