ARTICLE PROFILES MINT DIRECTOR EDMUND C. MOY

An April 6 article in Asian Week profiles U.S. Mint Director Ed Moy:

"In September 2006, President George W. Bush, appointed Moy the 38th 
director the U.S. Mint, the first Asian American to serve in that role, 
and the maker of those shiny coins that so captured his imagination 
as a child. 

"'Isn't this country amazing,' said Moy. 'I'm the son of Chinese 
immigrants who ran a restaurant in the Midwest. Now I oversee the 
government agency that made those coins we earned and that fascinated 
me. Where else but in America can a kid like me, working in his parent's 
restaurant, get the opportunity to one day run a critical government 
agency?'" 

"Born in Detroit, Moy is a graduate of the University of Wisconsin. 
After working at Blue Shield Health Services for a decade, he was asked 
to serve in the Department of Health and Human Services by President 
George H. Bush. Later under the current president, Moy was special 
assistant to the president in the Office of Presidential Personnel, 
an agency that oversaw applicants to some of the president's key 
appointments."
