Role in the Community

  • With her husband 陳淮崇, compiled the “Greater Baltimore/Washington 台灣人名錄” in 1965 — working through the local phone book for plausible Chinese surnames and calling each household to ask whether they were Taiwanese — the organizing baseline for the Baltimore/Washington Taiwanese community.
  • Took part in the first Baltimore Taiwanese gathering at the lunar new year in 1966 (meal, Taiwanese folk songs, and a satirical skit directed by Mrs. William Crowley mocking the Chiang regime’s campus surveillance), the gathering that led to the 1967 Baltimore/Washington 台灣同鄉會, in which 陳淮崇 was the first president.
  • The family later lived in Houston and Princeton (where 陳淮崇 helped found the 1970 Houston and 1973 New Jersey 同鄉會) before retiring to Reno, Nevada.
