Closest we've had recently was Yul Kwon, pretty sad however you cut it.

hey what about Cung Le? and though Becky didn't get as much media attention as Yul did, she does a lot of work within the Asian American community.

anyway if we step away from media figures, there are some Asian American political figures that young Asian kids can look up to. Gary Locke, Norm Mineta, Mike Honda, Patsy Mink, Bob Matsui, John Liu, Judy Chu, Wilma Chan, etc etc.
