Fact of the Day: Hiram Fong
Hiram Fong was the first Asian American to be a U.S. Senator, and to date the only Republican U.S. Senator from Hawaii.
I know Mr. Fong's brother, Leonard, and I have stayed at LF's hotel many times. Some of my fondest memories of Hawaii are of Leonard Fong and the Royal Grove.
Also the first Asian American to run for President. Good for him.
ReplyDeleteHis name reflects his double-barrelled ancestry.
