BiographyLi, a native of Hong Kong, is the daughter of a Hong Kong businessman. After graduating from journalism school in Taiwan, she worked for three years for Hong Kong's largest daily newspaper Oriental Daily News. Li came to the US in 1984, continued her education with a master's degree from Utah State University, and started reporting in San Francisco for the World Journal. She was one of the speakers at the Ascend conference sponsored by the Asian Pacific Islander American Public Affairs Association (APAPA), the Asian Studies Department of the City College of San Francisco, the Japan Policy Research Institute and the Center on the Pacific Rim at USF, and the Stanford Center for East Asia Studies.[2][6][7] Li has repeatedly been awarded for her journalism.[8][9] Investigative and campaigning journalismA Wall Street Journal leader column described Li as one of the "firebrand journalists" of the American ethnic press.[2] Among the stories she has investigated was a series of fires in San Francisco in 2001 that destroyed restaurants owned by ethnic-Chinese businessmen. According to the Wall Street Journal, Li's interview with one of the owners who informed her that gang members had demanded protection money and her subsequent reports identifying gang links to the arson generated tips leading to the Federal Bureau of Investigation arrest of several suspects on charges of extortion. San Francisco Police Chief Fred Lau said, "Portia was going 120 miles an hour," during a press conference, "We said, 'Hey, maybe this [her investigation] is something that people are interested in.'"[2] Li is active in highlighting the issue of Chinese ethnic discrimination to Chinese communities worldwide in articles published by the World Journal. According to the Wall Street Journal column, Li raised questions about racial bias in her articles on behalf of Rep. David Wu, a Democrat from Oregon who was denied entry to the U.S. Energy Department by guards who questioned his nationality. She also challenged an inflammatory editorial likening the Chinese-American physicist Wen Ho Lee to "Fu Manchu". During his investigation, she published many articles described as helping to "galvanize the Chinese-American community". "Portia was way out in front," stated Policy Director of Chinese for Affirmative Action Ted Wang.[2] Reporters and editors from three Chinese-language American newspapers, including Li, received an apology in 2007 by then presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton for an apparent snub at a fund raiser when the reporters were considered "foreign press".[10] According to Li, who covered the gender discrimination case brought by the Chinese-American executive Ellen Pao, it was one of the World Journals top stories, measured by hits on the paper's website.[4] References{{Commons category|Journalists from China}}1. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014-10-27/one-percenters-drop-six-figures-at-long-island-mall.html|title=One Percenters Drop Six Figures at Long Island Mall|author=Carol Hymowitz|publisher= Bloomberg L.P|date=2014-10-27|accessdate=2015-03-29}} {{Asian Americans}}{{authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Li, Portia}}2. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{cite news | title = New Voices: Ms. Li's Journalistic Crusade Is Epitome of Thriving Ethnic Press in U.S. |publisher= Wall Street Journal|last=Tam |first= Pui-Wing| url = https://www.wsj.com/articles/SB99652491414825765# |date=July 31, 2001 | accessdate = 2015-03-28}} 3. ^{{cite web | title = Newspaper war in the Bay Area - Ming Pao becomes 6th Chinese-language daily -| publisher=SFGate | url = http://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/SAN-FRANCISCO-Newspaper-war-in-the-Bay-Area-2736641.php | accessdate = 2015-03-22}} 4. ^1 {{cite news | title = Ellen Pao trial is big news in China |publisher=USA Today| url = https://www.usatoday.com/story/tech/2015/03/17/ellen-pao-kleiner-perkins-china-singtao-daily-journal-ktsf/24905541/ |date=March 17, 2015 |first=Elizabeth |last=Weise | accessdate = 2015-03-22}} 5. ^{{cite web | title = What To Do About Bird Flu | publisher=Alternet | url = http://w.alternet.org/story/28247/what_to_do_about_bird_flu | accessdate = 2015-03-28 }} 6. ^{{cite web | title = Asian American Political Clout: A Post-Election Analysis | publisher=AsianWeek | url = http://www.asianweek.com/2011/11/11/asian-american-political-clout-a-post-election-analysis/ | accessdate = 2015-03-28}} 7. ^{{cite news | url=http://www.worldjournal.com/6657/article-%E5%AF%86%E5%B8%82%E8%A1%A8%E5%BD%B0%E6%9C%AC%E5%A0%B1%E8%A8%98%E8%80%85%E6%9D%8E%E7%A7%80%E8%98%AD/ | title=密市表彰本報記者李秀蘭 (Millbrae Honors Journalist Portia Li) | work=World Journal | date=October 15, 2008 | accessdate=31 March 2015}} 8. ^{{cite web | url=http://www.wuhanuniversity.org/alumni/huaizhong082008.html | title=北加華人傳媒協會頒獎 世界日報大豐收 (...Chinese Media Association Awards...) | publisher=Wuhan University Overseas Alumni Foundation | date=2008 | accessdate=30 May 2015}} 9. ^{{cite web | url=http://www.nccma.org/ | title=第19屆NCCMA獲獎作品及獲獎者名單 (19th NCCMA prize-winning articles and people) | publisher=Northern California Chinese Media Association | date=2014 | accessdate=30 May 2015}} 10. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.zoominfo.com/CachedPage/?archive_id=0&page_id=1940606326&page_url=//news.asianweek.com/news/view_article.html?article_id=96ac55e94b2e1f11ba3d8b96f866b0ef&page_last_updated=2007-03-30T18:27:49&firstName=Portia&lastName=Li|title=Snubbed Papers Accept Clinton Apology|last=Wong|first=Samson|date=30 March 2007|work=zoominfo.com}} 15 : American women journalists|Chinese journalists|American reporters and correspondents|Chinese activists|Chinese women activists|Chinese women writers|20th-century American women writers|21st-century American women writers|Hong Kong people|Millbrae, California|Utah State University alumni|Living people|Year of birth missing (living people)|20th-century American non-fiction writers|21st-century American non-fiction writers |
