Great Conversations Luncheon  

Featuring 

Jamie Ford 

Author of Hotel on the Corner of Bitter & Sweet  

  

Thursday, April 15  

 

 

Jamie Ford is the great grandson of Nevada mining pioneer Min Chung, who travelled from Kaiping, China, to San Francisco in 1865, where he adopted the western name "Ford," thus confusing countless generations. An award-winning short-story writer, Ford is an alumnus of the Squaw Valley Community of Writers and a survivor of Orson Card's Literary Boot Camp.  Having grown up near Seattle's Chinatown, he now lives in Montana (where he is on a never-ending quest to find decent dim sum).  Visit him at www.jamieford.com where he can be found blogging about his next book, among other things.
