How I Got into Publishing: Jennifer Ung, Associate Editor, Simon Pulse
Like
many children of Asian immigrants, I grew up believing there are only two paths
you can take in life: pursue medicine, or pursue law. It never occurred to me
as a kid that I could follow anything other than the path my parents so
carefully laid out for me: college close to home, stable job, Asian husband, a
litter of babies. “Dream jobs” are for
white people, I was always told, not
for you.
