Years later, her Korean-ness behind her, Helena had everything a model minority was supposed to want: she was married to a white American doctor and had a beautiful home, two children, and a career as an assistant professor of pediatrics. For decades she fulfilled the expectations of others. All the while Helena kept silent about the traumas, both professional and personal, that left her anxious yet determined to escape. It would take a catastrophic event for Helena to abandon her career at the age of forty, recover her Korean identity, and set in motion a journey of self-discovery. In her powerful and moving memoir, Helena Rho reveals the courage it took to break away from the path that was laid out for her, to assert her presence, and to discover the freedom and joy of finally being herself. 600 10 $a Rho, Helena. 650 0 $a Korean American women $v Biography. 650 0 $a Immigrants $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Koreans $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Korean Americans $z Korea (South) $v Biography. 650 0 $a Women pediatricians $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Women authors, American $v Biography. 650 0 $a Identity (Psychology) 650 0 $a Audiobooks. 650 0 $a Autobiographies. 941 $a 1 945 $a cdab 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20221005021721.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=52882FFE447311EDBB956A3F21ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
