To celebrate a book that will change the way America looks at immigrants</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Harris News","serif"'>When: 6 pm,
Monday, December 7 </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Harris News","serif"'>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.</span> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Harris News","serif"'>Richard
Herman and Robert Smith will team up with their publisher, John Wiley &
Sons, to celebrate the launch of <i>Immigrant Inc. -- Why Immigrant
Entrepreneurs Are Driving the New Economy (and how they will save the American
worker)</i>.</span> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Harris News","serif"'>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.</span> <o:p></o:p></p>

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. </span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Harris News","serif"'>"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,
