About
I am a 5th generation Chinese American who has been a motion picture actor/producer, worldwide professional speaker, university business school dean, credit union board chairman, award-winning real estate broker, and more. While I have been more successful than average, I've had to sue for the rights that most people take for granted. My life's goal is to help people see past differences on the outside to see how similar we all are on the inside.

Michael Soon Lee, Ph.D., is the author of the upcoming book, “Beyond the Bamboo Curtain: Understanding America’s Invisible Minority”. In his book, he explains his journey to acceptance and success in America along with some little-known facts about Asians and their 150-year-old history in the United States.
May is Asian Pacific Heritage Month and it’s more important than ever for people to understand this growing but misunderstood group. In Michael’s book, he uncovers many of the myths about Asians including:

• Why Asians in America have the highest level of academic achievement yet are the least likely to be promoted at work.
• How the myth of the successful minority negatively impacts Asian Pacific Americans.
• Why are Asians in the U.S. granted privileges that most other minorities don’t have?
• Stereotypes that are the cause of the growing violence against Asian Pacific Americans.
• Why the epidemic of “quiet quitting” started in Asia and how it affects the U.S. workplace.
