[NEohioPAL] News Release: Book Launch Party for "Immigrant, Inc." (John Wiley & Sons)

[Johnny Wu]

What:     A book launch party

Why:     To celebrate a book that will change the way America looks at
immigrants

When:    6 pm, Monday, December 7 

 

Immigrants and their friends from throughout Northeast Ohio will gather at
an Ohio City nightclub Monday, December 7, to welcome a book that tells
their success story. 

Richard Herman and Robert Smith will team up with their publisher, John
Wiley & Sons, to celebrate the launch of Immigrant Inc. -- Why Immigrant
Entrepreneurs Are Driving the New Economy (and how they will save the
American worker). 

The book highlights the accomplishments of immigrant entrepreneurs across
the country, including several business founders in Northeast Ohio, as it
reveals the astonishing success of immigrants in the New Economy and their
power to create jobs, new industries, and to lift communities. 

India's Businessworld magazine finds that Immigrant, Inc. breaks new ground:


The book goes beyond praising talented immigrants to explore their mindset,
cultural specificities and their high level of determination and innovative
thinking. The book also touches upon the issue of anti-immigration
attitudes, in turn, suggesting how Americans need to tap their 'inner
immigrant' to succeed. 

Sponsors of the launch party include Huntington Bank, the high-tech trade
group TiE Ohio, and the Hispanic Chambers of Commerce of Ohio.  More than
three dozen globally-minded civic and business groups have signed on as
co-sponsors.  (See attached flyer, also posted at

"The authors' passion comes through in this fantastic book that points to
the power and importance of intercultural partnerships in a global economy,"
says Connie Atkins, executive director of the Consortium of African American
Organizations, which is co-sponsoring the launch party. 

"This book, filled with stirring stories testifying to the ongoing power of
the American Dream as a magnet, challenges us all to build an inclusive
culture of welcome, access, opportunity and empowerment," said Leonard M.
Calabrese, president of Catholic Community Connection, another co-sponsor. 

Lute Harmon, Sr., publisher of Inside Business and other magazines calls
Immigrant, Inc. a "must-read."    <http://tiny.cc/1pSBz>

Markt, at 1948 W. 25th Street, across from the West Side Market. Partygoers
will enjoy free appetizers and a cash bar. Copies of Immigrant, Inc. will be

Herman, an immigration lawyer, founded the Cleveland law firm of Richard T.
