About this listen

Writer and economist Denise Chong and actress Sarah Jessica Parker on this archival edition of Fresh Air. Chong is the author of The Concubine's Children. The book is a history of her family, beginning with her grandmother, May-Ying, a concubine brought to Canada by Chong's wealthy grandfather. May-Ying had two daughters in China, and Chong's mother in Canada. The three sisters didn't meet until Chong persuaded her mother to take the trip to China when she was writing this book. Parker has been acting for most of her life, including playing the title role in Annie on Broadway, the young bimbo "SanDeE" in L.A. Story, and a fed-up fiancée in Honeymoon in Vegas. She also starred in the film Miami Rhapsody, playing a woman having second thoughts about marriage as she learns that everyone in her family has had an affair.
