Immigration attorney and author Margaret Wong hosted a conversation with Connie Chung at the Cuyahoga County Public Library Parma branch on October 1, 2025 in support of Connie Chung's book titled Connie: A Memoir.

The event reached capacity within hours of the announcement as everyone wanted to see these two successful, iconic women of Chinese heritage.

Cuyahoga County Public Library CEO Jamar Rahming introduced the speakers and the conversation began.

Margaret Wong asked Connie Chung to read a passage from her book and Connie told the story of being the only woman - and a short in stature Asian woman to boot - in a roomful of men that she said suffered from "big-shot-it is." Watch.

Here are some images from the discussion.
