At age 10, Esther Kwan visited her neighborhood Chinatown Branch Public Library every week during the summer and checked out and returned the maximum allowed seven books every week. Coming full circle, she has presented over 65 arts & craft events for every age group at the San Francisco Public Branch Libraries.  She loves meeting people and is always interested in learning about their lives and family history. Likewise, she enjoys sharing her experiences, interests, Chinese traditions and Chinese American history.
