"From Ironing Board to Corporate Board" is the story of an immigrant family's survival experiences in their adopted country as well as the story of a community's acculturation into American society.
From the author: Identifying books that I could relate to was always a challenge when I was growing up. Although there were books about Asia and its people, books on the Asian American experience were seriously lacking. My hope is that this book fills that void and will be included in recommended and/or suggested reading lists of schools across this nation.
