National Writers Series: Amy Tan

Shawn K Roach

Amy Tan is an American author born to Chinese immigrant parents. Many of her books, including her debut novel “The Joy Luck Club,” are centered around the Chinese-American experience. Her latest book is something different. It’s a non-fiction work called “The Backyard Bird Chronicles,” and it’s written in journal format that includes Amy’s illustrations of birds. Amy spoke with Ed Ronco, news director for Interlochen Public Radio, at the City Opera House in Traverse City.
