EVENT DETAILS |
In celebration of Asian Pacific American Heritage Month this May, the Asian Alumni Chapter of the Stanford Graduate School of Business (GSB) is proud to offer an on-campus Special Screening of a new documentary film about the late San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee - the first Asian-American mayor of a major U.S. city.
Produced by the Chinese Historical Society of America, the film presents the inspirational, humorous, & emotional story of this remarkable man & community leader, who passed away suddenly in office.
Watch the film & learn how Ed Lee - a son of immigrants, a pro bono lawyer-activist for tenants & garment workers, a habitual punster, & a reluctant politician - became a history-making civic leader.
Hillary Clinton & Warriors guard Steph Curry appear in the film, reflecting on what Mayor Lee meant to them & the larger community.
Twitter's Biz Stone is an Executive Producer of the film, with major donors including Ron Conway & Marc Benioff.
This special event includes a pre-screening networking hour with hosted drinks & hot appetizers, & a unique post-screening fireside chat with the film's director Rick Quan, an Emmy award winning TV journalist, & Alvin Lau, one of the executive producers & a Stanford GSB alumnus.
