Summary

Asian Americans of Achievement explores the lives of 16 notable Asian Americans. The subjects presented are among the most successful in their professions-they include world-renowned athletes, artists, entertainers, and politicians. Readers will not only learn about the lives and accomplishments of these illustrious individuals, but they'll also discover how being Asian American affected the subjects and informed their work.

Each title features:

  • "Being Asian American" boxed inserts that examine the impact of the subject's cultural heritage
  • "The Story of My Family" and "Between the Generations" boxed inserts that allow readers to experience an important part of American history
  • "Other Notable Asian Americans" boxed inserts that focus on other Asian Americans in the same field as the book's subject
  • First-person accounts highlighted with full-color photographs that vividly bring each of these individuals' stories to life.
