Immigrant says his success not so unusual

August 25, 2007 (1 min read)

"Alfredo Quiñones-Hinojosa began his working life as an illegal immigrant picking melons and tending cotton in Mendota. Now, Dr. Quiñones performs brain surgery and teaches in Baltimore at Johns Hopkins University, one of the nation's most prestigious medical schools. He says some people call his tale an exception to the normal immigrant experience. He refuses to believe that. And it hurts, he says, to see undocumented workers dismissed as not making a valuable contribution to society." Fresno Bee, Aug. 20, 2007.
