Author Anchee Min appears at the 2010 National Book Festival.
Speaker Biography: Anchee Min was born in Shanghai during the rule of communist leader Mao Zedong. She was chosen to become a leader of the Little Red Guards, a group of elementary school children who supported Mao's ideas. At the age of 17, she was sent to a labor camp, where she discovered the truth about the Chinese leader. After suffering a severe spinal cord injury, eventually, in 1984, she left China for America. She spoke no English when she arrived in Chicago, but within six months had taught herself the language in part by watching "Sesame Street" and "Mr. Rogers Neighborhood." Her books have been praised for their raw, sharp language and historical accuracy. They include "Becoming Madame Mao," "The Last Empress" and her current novel, "Pearl of China" (Bloomsbury), which tells the story of Nobel Prize winner Pearl S. Buck. As a teenager Min had been taught to denounce Buck as an American cultural imperialist.

Anchee Min appears at the 2014 Library of Congress National Book Festival in Washington, D.C.
Speaker Biography: Chinese-American writer Anchee Min has written several historical fiction novels and two memoirs, including the international best-seller "Red Azalea," a text that follows her time growing up in China during the violent trauma of the Cultural Revolution. Her second memoir, "The Crooked Seed: A Memoir" (Simon & Schuster), picks up on her story of immigration to America, where she became immersed in the American Dream without the language, money or clear direction -- aside from her plan to work hard and study art in Chicago - needed to achieve it. Though Min left the labor camps and her deprived life in China with high hopes, "The Cooked Seed" reveals the significant challenges, physical and emotional, that she faced in America. This memoir recalls Min's powerful journey to selfhood and the positive formations of a successful career and a loving family that she eventually built through her strength and perseverance.

Published in 2002. "Wild Ginger" is the poetic, captivating, and tragic love story set against the horrors of Maoism. In her fourth release, Min returns to the devastating experience of the Cultural Revolution that defined her youth, as she has done in her previous books, the bestselling memoirist opens the fictional door to a world that is at once terrible and compelling.
Wild Ginger is only in elementary school when she is singled out by the Red Guards for her foreign-colored eyes. Her classmate Maple (the first-person narrator) is also a target of persecution. The novel chronicles these two girls' maturing in Shanghai in the late 1960s and early 1970s, when Chairman Mao Tse-Tung (or Zedong) ruled absolutely and his followers took up arms in his name. Wild Ginger grows up to become a model Maoist, but her romantic love for a man soon places her in an untenable position—and ultimately in one of mortal danger. "Wild Ginger" offers a vivid picture of young people in the grip of ideology and serves as a reminder that the passion of youth can be channeled into tragic courses.
About the Author:
Anchee Min was born in Shanghai in 1957. Like her character Wild Ginger, she ardently followed the tenets of Maoism to save her spirit and joined the Red Guards to avoid being attacked. At seventeen she was sent to a labor collective, where a talent scout for Madame Mao's Shanghai Film Studio recruited her to work as a propaganda-movie actress. She came to the United States in 1984. Min's critically acclaimed novel "Becoming Madame Mao" was a national bestseller and her 1994 memoir, "Red Azalea," was named a New York Times Notable Book and was an international bestseller.

In her fourth release, Min returns to the devastating experience of the Cultural Revolution that defined her youth, as she has done in her previous books, the bestselling memoirist opens the fictional door to a world that is at once terrible and compelling.
Wild Ginger is only in elementary school when she is singled out by the Red Guards for her foreign-colored eyes. Her classmate Maple (the first-person narrator) is also a target of persecution. The novel chronicles these two girls' maturing in Shanghai in the late 1960s and early 1970s, when Chairman Mao Tse-Tung (or Zedong) ruled absolutely and his followers took up arms in his name.
