    Died in 1961, ANNA MAY WONG is considered the 1st Chinese-American Hollywood star. Born & raised in California, she began acting at 14. Tired of stereotyped roles, she hit it big in Europe. Sadly racism continued to affect her career & private life.

    Emphatically NOT me. Mother barely finished public school in the dust bowl years, and father had only a year or two of high school before he was pulled to help his father full time with the farm. Second and third generation PhD families are a wonder to me.

    Me! My mom did go back, first for a AS in something secretarial (to get a admin assistant job) and then eventually a BA in her 50s. My dad started college but dropped out to work on a state fishing research vessel. Both loved to learn, neither had a formal chance when young.
