(79727) Ethnic Communities, Chinese, War Relief, 1938

In 1938, Lee Din, aged 67, was the oldest Chinese Cook in Detroit. He emigrated to the city in 1888.

Mr. Din was photographed by Detroit News reporters because his family lived in the Chinese war zone and he donated 1/3 of his salary to the Chinese War Refugees Fund.
