Michelle Hsiao Au (Chinese: 欧晓瑜[1]) is an American anesthesiologist and politician from Georgia. Au has served in the Georgia House of Representatives as a Democratic member for District 50 since 2023.[2] Au previously represented the 48th District in the Georgia State Senate and was the first Asian American elected to that body.[3][4] In December 2021, Au announced that she would not be running for re-election in Senate district 48 but instead would run for election in Georgia state House district 50 due to the Republican controlled state legislature re-drawing her district.[5]
In 2011, Au published her book This Won't Hurt a Bit (and Other White Lies),[6] which according to a review, "exposes the reality of medical education and the irony within the practice of medicine that physicians are human, but our patients want us to be more".[7]
Early life and education
Au was born to Chinese-American immigrants in New York City. She graduated from Wellesley College in 1999 with a B.A. in Psychobiology, M.D. in 2003 and a Master of Public Health in 2019 from Columbia University.[8][9]
