Synopsis

Memoirs of a Rolling Stone is the remarkable self-told story of John H. Kim, the son of a Korean picture bride born in Honolulu, Hawaii in 1924.

With gentle warmth and wry humor, he details the lives of the some of the earliest Korean American immigrants and recounts his own unlikely journey—one that would take him from a leaky one-room shack through the throes of the Great Depression and devastation of Pearl Harbor to the ruins of post-war Europe and beyond.

It’s a tale of adventure, perseverance, inspiration and above all, the bonds of family and the pursuit of the American dream.
