More about the book
The memoirs reveal the journey of Filipino immigrants in Hollywood over 80 years, beginning in the 1920s. Initially facing discrimination, these early settlers primarily found work in service roles, such as waiters and cooks, while dreaming of a better future. Despite being marginalized and underrepresented, many overcame these challenges to achieve recognition and success in the entertainment industry, contributing significantly to Hollywood's status as a global center of glamour and creativity. Their stories highlight resilience and the pursuit of dreams against the odds.
