Anna May Wong U.S. Quarter Released


For our family gathering on the eighth and last night of Chanukah (which coincided with Christmas this year), my mother swapped out the traditional chocolate gelt for real money.


She gave me five of the recently-issued Anna May Wong U.S. quarters. Anna May Wong, a Hollywood film star from the first half of the twentieth century, is the first Asian-American to be profiled on a US coin.
