Fei-Fei Li, author of 'The Worlds I See' and co-director of Stanford's Human-Centered AI Institute, joins the L.A. Times Book Club Nov. 14.
Fei-Fei Li was a high school junior in Parsippany, N.J., when she turned to her math teacher for help — but not with math. As a recent immigrant from China, she was struggling to adapt to a new language and culture while working long hours at a restaurant to help her parents make ends meet.
When the acceptance letter came, it was math teacher Bob Sabella who helped her understand that Princeton was offering her nearly a full scholarship. It was also Sabella and his wife, Jean, who helped Li’s struggling family by generously lending money to help them buy a dry-cleaning business, an enterprise Li figured would be a good fit for her mechanically minded father and her chronically ill mother. On weekends home from college, she helped her parents at the shop.
