Choy. who began his working life. quite significantly. in one of Hawaiis pineapple canneries. sits as one of 13 judges in a court just below the level of the U.S. Supreme Court. As the first Hawaii lawyer to be appointed to the Ninth Circuit Court. he also holds the highest Federal judicial post for any person of Asian descent. The son of immigrants from Korea. Judge Choy epitomizes the childrearing philosophy of many parents of Asian origin: Hard work and a good education.
