Arthur Dong explores the impact of Chinese Americans in the Hollywood film industry from the early days of film to today’s box office hits. The discussion will examine the portrayal and celebration of Asian American culture in Hollywood to the subtle, and not so subtle, projection of stereotypes in movies.🎭
Guest moderator, Golden Globe and Emmy award-winning Hollywood producer, Janet Yang, will engage in a discussion on how the book resonates with readers and the relevance in today’s climate.
The event will conclude with a Q&A and a chance to chat directly with Arthur Dong.
