7. Anousheh Ansari: Iranian American entrepreneur and civilian astronaut and first Muslim woman in space.
   
8. Emily Cross: Multiracial Korean/white(?) American foil fencer and Olympic athlete.

Also, poet and blogger Barbara Reyes responded to my request to post links to her own profiles with a linkspost listing her reviews and discussions of Asian American women writers and artists, HERE. (Check her out, she's awrsome.)

And HERE, once again, is the link to the Asian Women Blog Carnival call for submissions, which will be taking submissions of posts and online stuff until April 3. I will come back here and link to the carnival itself when it's done. ETA: and here it is! It's an amazing list of essays on all kinds of topics -- no, it's not just stuff about identity and cultural appropriation, although there's plenty of that. Check it out!

Thanks for reading!
