| Abstract | As part of a five-volume series this volume presents biographical sketches of persons of Asian American heritage who have made contributions to American life. Asian Americans have often been subjected to racial and ethnic prejudice, as have other easily identifiable groups of Americans. The series, written at a reading level of grades 5 to 6, but with an interest level for older students as well, profiles several Asian Americans and demonstrates their valuable places in American life. Volume I includes biographies of: (1) Pat Suzuki, Japanese American singer and actress; (2) Minoru Yamasaki, Japanese American architect; (3) Kristi Yamaguchi, Japanese American figure skater; (4) An Wang, Chinese American founder of Wang Laboratories; (5) Connie Chung, Chinese American broadcast journalist; and (6) Carlos Bulosan, Filipino American author. A glossary supplements the biographies. (SLD) |
