Who Was Bruce Lee? by Jim Gigliotti
Born in San Francisco and raised in Hong Kong, Bruce Lee rose from child actor to a pioneering martial artist, instructor, and movie star who blended physical skill with philosophy to create Jeet Kune Do. The book traces his struggles with racism and setbacks, his move to the United States where he taught martial arts and acted, and his breakthrough films that changed how Asians were portrayed on screen. It also covers his sudden death at 32 and the lasting influence he left on martial arts, cinema, and popular culture.
