Giovanna Pang Garcia, author of Why Chinese Women are not Broke, will share the secrets of how she and 100 of America’s most successful Chinese American women have achieved the American Dream at Art Expressions Gallery, in conjunction with an exhibition by famed Chinese contemporary artist Jian Wang.

In her new book Garcia profiles presidents, vice presidents, and top executives at the likes of Coca-Cola, Wal-Mart, and IBM, highly respected educators at top-notch universities, including Harvard, USC, Cal Tech, and Columbia, leaders in the political and legal fields, such as ambassadors, congresswomen, and U.S. attorneys.

            “My book focuses on what the American Dream is all about,” says Garcia.  “At a time when fear is beginning to trump hope, these leaders have a message that is important for Americans to embrace today.”

            Garcia’s own life is a rags-to-riches success story.  She immigrated to the U.S. by herself at 16, pulled herself up by her bootstraps and turned a $300 living room start-up into a multi-million dollar computer corporation. Since retiring before age 40, she had devoted herself to sharing her own blueprint for success.  She characterizes the book as “Chicken Soup for the Soul meets The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People.”

            Garcia emphasizes that the keys to success are applicable to all people.  “These Chinese immigrants share the same values as immigrants to America for hundreds of years.  They have all brought a willingness to work hard, take risks, persevere in the face of setbacks and live with integrity,” she says.

In the book Why Chinese Women Are Not Broke, Giovanna Pang Garcia tracked down 100 of the most successful and influential Chinese women in America, convincing them to share their secrets of success.   Garcia’s book explains how their core values and commonsense practices can be utilized by anyone willing to invest in hard work and persistence.  These women became successful not because they were lucky, but because they found the balance between the Chinese core values they were raised with and the freedom and opportunities that America provides.  They persevered, were driven by an indefatigable work ethic, possessed an unstoppable desire for success and never quit pursuing their dreams.

Among the women featured in the book are presidents, vice presidents, and top executives at Coca-Cola, Wal-Mart, IBM, AT&T, Qualcomm, Allergen Inc., State Farm, Bank of American, Citi, Merrill Lynch, State Street, and United Commercial Bank.  Others are highly respected educators at top-notch universities, including Harvard, USC, Cal Tech, UDSU and Columbia.  Leaders in the political and legal fields, such as ambassadors, congresswomen,  U.S. attorneys, and a police chief, round out the list of remarkable women who have discovered the balance for success.
