Yue-Sai Kan, who currently resides in Manhattan, NY, and Honolulu, HI, is an Emmy-winning television host and producer, successful entrepreneur, fashion icon, bestselling author in China, and humanitarian. People magazine called her "the most famous woman in China” and Time magazine proclaimed her "the Queen of the Middle Kingdom."
In 1972, Yue-Sai created the weekly television series "Looking East", the first of its kind to introduce Asian cultures and customs to American audiences. In 1984, PBS invited Yue-Sai to host the first live broadcast of a television program from China on the occasion of the 35th Anniversary of the People's Republic of China. Two years later, the television series "One World" produced and hosted by Yue-Sai aired on China’s national television network CCTV, with a weekly viewership of 400 million.
