The deepest Chandra surveys and their corresponding multiwavelength data sets provide a unique means for studying the evolution of X‐ray emission from normal galaxy populations (i.e., galaxies that are not dominated by luminous active galactic nuclei [AGNs]). We outline recent investigations by Lehmer et al. (2008) and Danielson et al. (2010, in‐prep) that utilize the Chandra Deep Fields to characterize the X‐ray evolution of normal late‐type and early‐type galaxy populations, resepctively. These studies provide insight into the evolution of star‐formation activity, hot gas cooling in massive ellipticals, and the evolution of X‐ray binary populations out to z≈1.4.
