On the Saturday, July 21 broadcast of Marvels of China: Pathways to the Pacific Rim I will be welcoming back two-time Emmy Award winning sports broadcast journalist and documentarian Rick Quan by phone from the San Francisco Bay area.
Rick Quan Productions has collaborated with the Chinese Historical Society of America, Kristi Yamaguchi’s Always Dream Foundation and others. He was with us previously regarding The Dorothy Toy Story. You can listen to that conversation here.
Rick returns to discuss his latest award-winning documentary No Ordinary Joe: The Allen Joe Story. Oakland, California native Allen Joe -who recently died at age 94- was one of the first Chinese American bodybuilding champions who turned to exercise and good health to build his confidence, attract the love of his life and become both friend and mentor to martial arts legend Bruce Lee.
I’ve established a link to the documentary where you can enjoy Allen Joe’s remarkable and heartwarming story in the Films section of MarvelsofChina.Blogspot.com, and directly on Vimeo.
As we like to point out, “everything Chinese is all the rage these days.” We'll feature the Confucius Moment, the Weekly Almanac, Treasures of China, Chinese Fun Facts and more!
