An immigrant who battles everything from parental expectations to cultural stereotypes, Liu is determined to carve out a path for himself that leads him to not only succeed as an actor but also to opening the door to reconciling with his parents. After all, the courage to pursue his ambitions at all costs is something that he inherited from his parents. This is more than a celebrity memoir. It's a story about growing up between cultures, finding your family, and becoming the master of your own extraordinary circumstance.
