Join us for a Changemaker Chat on September 27th with Joanne Kwong, President of Pearl River Mart, the world's first Chinese American department store.

Joanne took a leap of faith leaving her longtime career as a communications executive and attorney to save the iconic NYC Asian emporium that her in-laws built in 1971. As President, Joanne navigated PRM through unprecedented challenges of a global pandemic and rampant xenophobia and has since expanded and revitalized the brand.
