Stories are often windows to understanding other cultures and traditions, as well as helping us to understand ourselves. Award-winning author Laurence Yep talks about his personal experiences growing up as a Chinese-American and explores how the history of a country and different cultures intertwine with one's own history. Mr. Yep also talks with young student writers, offering suggestions and advice on writing stories based on one's personal experiences (recorded in 2002 at C. D. Hylton High School in Woodbridge, VA).
