| Joseph Yang was born on Christmas Day, 1928, in Manchuria. He began painting as a youth and as a boy witnessed the Japanese inivasion of China and the civil war between the Nationalists and the Communists. His family - the House of Yang - was scattered by the turmoil, and he walked out of the country beginning on a May morning in 1947. His epic 2000-mile journey would eventually inspire the acclaimed 1994 book ``Baba: A Return to China Upon My Father's Shoulders,'' by his daughter, Belle Yang (showing 500 of 1897 characters). |
