People magazine called her “the most famous woman in China” and Time magazine proclaimed her “the Queen of the Middle Kingdom.” In 1972, Yue-Sai created the weekly television series “Looking East”, the fi rst of its kind to introduce Asian cultures and customs to American audiences. “One World” aired on China’s national television network CCTV, with a weekly viewership of 400 million.
