From the Author

"My perspective is a product of who I am--a second generation Korean woman, and first generation new American, born and raised in Los Angeles at the historical moment when Civil Rights, Women's Rights, and the Free Speech Movement were emerging in the collective consciousness of a nation.

Gender, class, history, and culture have required me to forge a different path than others. Walking that path has given rise to these writings.

What has been the greatest gift in my life is openness. In this, I have found both pleasure and pain, inspiration and disappointment, laughter and tears. In short, I have found a way to grow. I recognize the gift of being blessed. I offer my essays as a gift to you."

- Angela E. Oh
