SYNOPSIS: The Asian Americans profiled in this volume have achieved a measure of success in fields as diverse as architecture, sculpture, athletic competition, film, music, and even the frantic world of stand-up comedy. They present a cross-section of the struggles and problems faced by Asian Americans as they try to find a place for themselves in mainstream American culture and discover who they are as individuals. For some, the tension between "Asian" and "American" is strong, and is felt either within themselves or through generational conflict. For others, the sense of being different is simply imposed from outside by prejudice. For still others, the struggle to master their craft is all-absorbing, and the problems of ethnicity seem very small as superstar status brings its own difficulties. These artists and athletes have dealt with problems of identity and acceptance in different ways, from the grace under pressure of Olympic gold medalist Kristi Yamaguchi to the direct comic attack of Margaret Cho, star of ABC's All American Girl. Their stories will inspire, educate, entertain and teach us about the common hopes and strivings that bind us all together. Ronald Takaki, the son of immigrant plantation laborers from Japan, graduated from the College of Wooster, Ohio, and earned his Ph.D. in history from the University of California at Berkeley, where he has served both as the chairperson and the graduate adviser of the Ethnic Studies program. Professor Takaki has lecture widely on issues relating to ethnic studies and multiculturalism in the United States, Japan, and the former Soviet Union and has won several important awards for his teaching efforts. He is the author of six books, including the highly acclaimed Strangers from a Different Shore: A History of Asian Americans, and the recently published A Different Mirror: A History of Multicultural America.
