Biographie:
My mother raised our family in a warm and cozy world, which was rescued from the dullness of comfort by my father, a nutty, inquisitive Chinese radiologist, who filled our lives with ham radio drama and electronic gadgets scattered throughout the house, baking in the oven, floating in the bathtub, wherever!
