Who I'd like to meet:
GENE YANG
Gene Yang, whose graphic novel American Born Chinese won the 2007 Michael L. Printz Award for young-adult literature, will present a talk on Wednesday, July 9, 2008 at 4:00 PM in the Central Library’s Mason O. Damon Auditorium.
American Born Chinese, which tells the story of Jin Wang, a son of Chinese immigrants, who struggles to assimilate at a predominately white school after moving from San Francisco's Chinatown to the suburbs, was named a 2006 finalist for the National Book Award in the young people's literature category.
This was the first graphic novel to be nominated for a National Book Award.
The presentation is free and open to the public.
