Never Alone: An Interview with Author Jimmy June Wong

Join the Arizona Historical Society and Jimmy June Wong on Wednesday, March 24 from 6-7 p.m. as he talks about his new book "Never Alone: The Bumpy Road from China to the American Dream." The son of immigrant parents, Dr. Wong's mother Dew Yu Wong and her husband June Wong moved to the small town in 1915 when they bought the American Laundry. Their family ran several businesses and raised nine children on Flagstaff's south side. Dr. Wong will share his family's experience immigrating to America along with funny and poignant stories from his childhood growing up in Flagstaff. Dew Yu Wong is one of the people featured in the "Resilience: Women in Flagstaff's Past and Present" exhibit, on display at Pioneer Museum and online.
