Summary

An instant best-seller when originally published in 1994, this expanded and updated edition of The Rice Roomtells of growing up with a double identity--Chinese and American. Ben Fong-Torres was torn between an alluring American lifestyle--including Elvis and rock 'n' roll--and the traditional cultural heritage his proud immigrant parents struggled to instill in their five children. This book traces his journey into adulthood, becoming a founding editor of Rolling Stone, a DJ, a journalist, and the author of six books about music. Now illustrated with personal family photographs as well as photos of the author with various celebrities, Fong-Torres rounds out his life story with a new final chapter, "The View from 2010."
