Not Your China Doll Book Cover Reveal

✨Book Cover Reveal of #NotYourChinaDoll - a new biography about #AnnaMayWong by Katie Gee Salisbury (@kayteesal)✨

I am excited to reveal the cover of an upcoming biography about Anna May Wong written by Katie Gee Salisbury. Some of you may simply know her by her Instagram username @kayteesal.

A backstory of how I connected with Katie: In November 2021, I stumbled upon Katie’s Twitter page while trying to figure out if an Asian woman at a Hollywood party was indeed Anna May Wong. It wasn’t. As I read her Half Caste Woman newsletter blog feverishly, I found out it was Mrs. Quon Tai Lachman. I reached out to her personally. We corresponded & connected over our love for Anna May Wong before meeting in-person in August 2022 - when I shared part of my AMW collection & notes with her. I guess we are kindred spirits in a way. Both in our mid-late 30s, we can trace our ancestry to Toisan, and share a love for film history & Anna May Wong. In December 2022, Katie asked me if I would read an early draft of Not Your China Doll. I jumped at the chance. I read the draft of her book in less than span of 1 week and was completely engrossed in the immersive world of Anna May Wong. Katie interweaves the worlds of AMW so beautifully with words and imagery of life - with its foibles. It’s a wonderful true telling of her life’s story, and debunks many of the myths about AMW. It’s well researched & she received input from people in the AMW community. I can’t wait to read this book in its final version—I only read one draft. I hope you will join me… won’t you? 😉

The book comes out in March 2024, but you can pre-order a copy now here: https://bit.ly/NotYourChinaDoll

I still haven’t found them after much searching. The only clues I’ve found are the photos & captions of said episodes (slide ➡️). Personally, it sounds like a very intriguing episode to watch. I also found an interview where Rita talks about “The Chinese Game” episode. (DM if you want the link!) ⠀ Anyways, I’ve always wondered how AMW was on set of tv shows - to see the perspectives of co-stars- like perspective of @theritamoreno. But I’m not sure if they interacted much or if they shared any scenes together. 🤔I know Rita from Singin’ in the Rain, West Side Story… In other words, Rita is a legend! I also saw that she’s the Star of the Month on @tcm this month. ⠀ I went down the rabbit hole of the internet & started watching Rita’s documentary, bought her audiobook, etc. ⠀ I particularly liked this quote from the documentary: “𝚃𝚑𝚎 𝚜𝚝𝚎𝚛𝚎𝚘𝚝𝚢𝚙𝚎 𝚌𝚘𝚖𝚎𝚜 𝚏𝚛𝚘𝚖 𝚑𝚘𝚠 𝚘𝚝𝚑𝚎𝚛𝚜 𝚝𝚎𝚕𝚕 𝚘𝚞𝚛 𝚜𝚝𝚘𝚛𝚢.

Unfortunately, I can’t attend due to health issues despite being nearby in San Francisco. Otherwise, I would’ve asked in person if given the opportunity. I’m kinda hoping she sees this post. If not, worth the shot! #annamaywong #ritamoreno #tcm #classicmovies #classiclegends https://www.instagram.com/p/CpEWknFr3bS/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Or love songs inspired by AMW. But I have a lot going on in my life—especially health struggles. So that went out the window, but will do those posts in the near future. Instead, I’m going to do a post about self love and transformation. ⠀ "𝗪𝗲 𝗱𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝗮𝘂𝘁𝘆 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝘂𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗹𝘆, 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝗿𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗹𝘆 𝗮𝗱𝗺𝗶𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝘁 𝗵𝗮𝘀 𝗴𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝘁𝗼 𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗲𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗯𝗲𝗮𝘂𝘁𝘆." — 𝗠𝗮𝘆𝗮 𝗔𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗹𝗼𝘂 ⠀ If you’re familiar with AMW’s filmography or career, if you may notice it goes through many transformations. She even did a film—Pavement Butterfly 1929. IMHO, butterflies symbolize AMW’s life & career perfectly. ⠀ “There is no more striking symbol of transformation than a butterfly. From egg to larva, to leaving the safety of the cocoon and emerging as a butterfly in her unfurling glory, the transformation that takes place almost before our eyes symbolically represents hope and new beginnings.“ -The Royal (https://www.theroyal.ca/why-butterfly) .⁣ .⁣ #oldhollywood #classicactress #annamaywongactress #annamaywongtribute #黄柳霜 #annamaywongforever #oldcinema #oldmovies #silverscreen #asianamericanactress #annamaywonglives #oldhollywoodglam #oldhollywoodactress #annamaywong✨ #oldhollywoodstars #classicmovies #asianamericanhistory #annamaywongfeature #goldenageofhollywood #annamaywongfans #oldhollywoodglamour #annamaywongrealness #annamaywong #asianexcellence #oldhollywoodmovies #goldenera #annamaywongstyle #annamaywonginspired #annamaewong💎 #asianamericans https://www.instagram.com/p/CoqVu0ovyZo/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

🕊️Changing the narrative about Anna May Wong’s death🕊️ Much of what I read about AMW’s death is that she died tragically—often her death is seen in a negative light. That was alone. That her career went downhill. Something along those lines. I challenge that narrative. Growing up as a daughter of a funeral counselor, I never saw death as the bad, big ending to life. I know it’s seen as taboo in many cultures around the world. I see that her death brought meaning to her life. Yes, it would been awesome if she had lived to star in Flower Drum Song. Given her alcoholism & health struggles, I doubt if she had lived longer she would been without those struggles & health issues. In retrospect, her career outlasted many of those of the silent era, spanning from silents to talkies to stage to cabaret to radio to television. It is impressive! To accomplish that in 56 years is amazing! Also, she wasn’t alone. She had a close knit family & friends group. She was particularly close to her youngest brother Richard—pictured in these photos. On the anniversary of her death, I want to acknowledge her legacy & accomplishments.🙌🏼 ⠀ If you’re familiar with sex positivity, I’m death positive. We “believe that it is not morbid or taboo to speak openly about death. They see honest conversations about death & dying as the cornerstone of a healthy society.” (https://www.orderofthegooddeath.com/death-positive-movement/) ⠀ 📷 credit: https://collections.library.yale.edu/catalog/10646252 (Carl Van Vechten) .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ #oldhollywood #annamaywongactress #annamaywongtribute #黄柳霜 #annamaywongforever #oldcinema #oldmovies #silverscreen #asianamericanactress #annamaywonglives #oldhollywoodglam #oldhollywoodactress #annamaywong✨ #oldhollywoodstars #classicmovies #asianamericanhistory #annamaywongfeature #goldenageofhollywood #annamaywongfans #oldhollywoodglamour #annamaywongrealness #annamaywong #asianexcellence #oldhollywoodmovies #goldenera #annamaywongstyle #annamaywonginspired #annamaewong 💎 #asianamericans #asianamericanactors https://www.instagram.com/p/CoLb0Q3vHY3/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Anna May Wong would be so proud of the 11 nominations Everything Everywhere All at Once has received. 🥹👏🏼 In her AMW’s lifetime, she was named “The World's Best-Dressed Woman” by Mayfair Mannequin Society of New York—the award she’s holding in her hands in this photo. I could muse about the acting awards AMW could have been nominated for, which roles & movies, but no awards need to validate her acting prowess & skills—for she was an excellent & emotive actress. I watched EEAAO this past week. I laughed & cried at how relatable it was—still is. I’m sure AMW a would have loved the line about laundry & taxes! “So, even though you have broken my heart yet again, I wanted to say, in another life, I would have really liked just doing laundry and taxes with you.” Congrats @a24 @michelleyeoh_official @kehuyquan @stephaniehsuofficial @jamieleecurtis James Hong, you have a special place in my heart! ❤️ ⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ #asianamericanactors #asianamericanactors✌️❤️🎭🖊 #asianamericanactorsinclassichollywood #asianamericanart #stephaniehsu #annamaywongstyle #silverscreen #classicactress #everythingeverywhereallatoncemovie #annamaywongactress #everythingeverywhereallatonce #jameshong #黄柳霜 #vintagestyle #annamaywongforever #goldenera #annamaywonginspired #oldhollywoodglamour #michelleyeoh #kehuyquan #annamaywong💎 #annamaywong✨ #classicmovies #everythingeverywheremovie #asianamericanactress #representationmatters #annamaywong #annamaywongrealness #annamaywongtribute #jamieleecurtis https://www.instagram.com/p/CnzkKv7O2Fp/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Hey AMW fans! Just wanted to pop in & wish everyone a Happy Chinese New Year/Happy Lunar New Year! Or sun nin fai lok in Cantonese. 😉 It doesn’t start until January 22nd (tomorrow for me, but I know some of you are in different time zones!). So Lunar New Year celebrations may have started for you already! 23 CHINESE NEW YEAR GREETINGS (MANDARIN & CANTONESE): https://thewoksoflife.com/chinese-new-year-greetings/ If I’m being honest, I’m kind of struggling with some with some with the CNY/LNY sayings & greetings during this time. I’m having health issues (arthritis, etc.) which is why I haven’t been posting lately. Wishing someone who has chronic health issues, Good Health & Good Wealth seems off to me. It doesn’t mean I don’t wish it for others. I just prefer if they said, “May all your wishes come true” or something like that. Anyways, if you celebrate Chinese New Year/Lunar New Year, I wish you the very best this year & every subsequent year! 🧧 📷 Photo credits: https://www.walterfilm.com/anna-may-wong-first-chinese-american-movie-star/ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ #oldhollywood #classicactress #annamaywongactress #annamaywongtribute #黄柳霜 #annamaywongforever #oldcinema #oldmovies #silverscreen #asianamericanactress #annamaywonglives #oldhollywoodglam #oldhollywoodactress #annamaywong✨ #oldhollywoodstars #classicmovies #asianamericanhistory #annamaywongfeature #goldenageofhollywood #annamaywongfans #oldhollywoodglamour #annamaywongrealness #annamaywong #asianexcellence #oldhollywoodmovies #goldenera #annamaywongstyle #annamaywonginspired #annamaewong💎 #cny2023 https://www.instagram.com/p/Cnsg6gLPdLT/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Hey AMW family, just checking in… You may have heard of the storm (bomb cyclone) that hit California. I’m located in the San Francisco Bay Area. I am okay and so are my family & friends. More storms are coming our way; please keep Californians in your thoughts. If you contact me & you don’t heard back from me within a reasonable amount of time, it’s very likely my power went out. Don’t fret when that happens; I’ll back to you as soon as I can. Please stay safe everyone! 🙏🏼 1st photo: upscaled version 2nd photo: the original .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ #oldhollywood #classicactress #annamaywongactress #annamaywongtribute #黄柳霜 #annamaywongforever #oldcinema #oldmovies #silverscreen #asianamericanactress #annamaywonglives #oldhollywoodglam #oldhollywoodactress #annamaywong✨ #oldhollywoodstars #classicmovies #asianamericanhistory #annamaywongfeature #goldenageofhollywood #annamaywongfans #oldhollywoodglamour #annamaywongrealness #annamaywong #asianexcellence #oldhollywoodmovies #goldenera #annamaywongstyle #annamaywonginspired #annamaewong 💎 #oldhollywoodstyle https://www.instagram.com/p/CnDmtWauWSk/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
