Many are familiar with the art and architectural design work of Maya Lin, but the compelling details of her personal background are less well known. This book not only focuses upon Lin's substantial achievements throughout her life, but also presents Maya Lin's "prehistory," describing family events in China that led to her parents' flight to the United States.
Author Donald Langmead guides readers through Lin's ancestry and family connections in precommunist China
her childhood and youth in Athens, Ohio
the story behind the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, DC
her career after 1982 (by decades)
and emphasis on environmental conservation. Written for a young adult and general readership, Maya Lin: A Biography provides an up-to-date description of how she became one of the most famous and respected artists in America.
