Jennifer Lee is Associate Professor in the Department of Sociology at the University of California, Irvine, and received her B.A. and Ph.D. degrees from Columbia University. Her research projects stem from her theoretical interests in the intersection of race/ethnicity and immigration. Much of her work focuses on the relations between immigrants and U.S.-born relations, the assimilation process of Asian and Latino immigrants as well as the second-generation (i.e., the children of immigrants), interracial marriage, and multiracial identities and families.

She is author of Civility in the City: Blacks, Jews, and Koreans in Urban America (Harvard University Press, 2002), The Diversity Paradox: Immigration and the Color Line in 21st Century America (with Frank D. Bean, Russell Sage Foundation, 2010), and co-editor of Asian American Youth: Culture, Identity, and Ethnicity (with Min Zhou, Routledge, 2004), which was named the 2006 Outstanding Book Award from the Asia and Asian America Section of the American Sociological Association. In 2003, she received the Robert E. Park Best Scholarly Article Award from the American Sociological Association's Community and Urban Sociology Section and Honorable Mention for the Thomas and Znaniecki Distinguished Book Award from the International Migration Section. She has been a Fellow at the Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences at Stanford, a Fellow at the Center for the Study of Race, Politics and Culture at the University of Chicago, and a Fulbright Scholar to Japan. In 2010-11, she will be a Visiting Scholar at the Russell Sage Foundation.
