About the author

Louisa Lu is a Sophomore at Parkway South High.  She was born in NanJing, China.  She is involved with band, track, and the community.  She likes art, movies, music and other clich teen stuff.  

Louisa Lu wanted to help condense a couple Post-Dispatch articles with materials provided by Missouri History Museum about the Sam Wah Laundry, because it's a part of the St. Louis culture and history that deserves to be remembered for what it signified and not the lot it is today.
