At age 17, Charlie Zhang’s situation was dire amid China’s Cultural Revolution, but he remained hopeful thanks to his clarinet, which he learned to play himself. Zhang explains to host Giselle Fernandez how a chance to attend school in the U.S. changed his life forever, as he made it to Los Angeles with just a suitcase, his clarinet and $20 in his pocket. After a hand injury ruined his chance to play music professionally, Zhang threw himself into restaurant work and opened the successful Pick Up Stix chain. Today, Zhang is well known for his many philanthropic endeavors, but he is most proud of creating OC Music & Dance, a nonprofit performing arts school that aims to make the arts accessible to every child.
