I have to write a biography about a Chinese inventor named Shi Dun. I have already used search engines to try and find information, but I have no luck. Anybody know about her.

Diana Tanaka - if this is the same person and I believe that it is - appears in the movie Big Trouble in Little China and was also in a Simpsons episode. Pretty sure she is married though......bummer!! She teaches or used to teach at a few places around Fresno according to some Kenpo searches I did.

Unfortunately noone by the name Charles B. Brooks is appearing anywhere in the searches I have done, some of which are in search engines that are specifically for inventors. Perhaps you have the name incorrect. Check it again, and repost your question being a little more careful to write it without any spelling mistakes this time.

I think this is what you are looking for. I got this from the webpage that I listed below.\n\nShinichi Suzuki, the man who developed the Suzuki Method, died on January 26, 1998, at his home in Matsumoto, Japan. Though he lived to be 99 years old, Dr. Suzuki always seemed young. He was full of energy, and was cheerful and loving to everyone he met.\n\nShinichi Suzuki was born on October 17, 1898, in Nagoya, Japan. He was one of twelve children and his father owned a violin factory. Shinichi and his brothers and sisters played near the factory and saw instruments being made, but the children never realized what beautiful sounds could come from a violin. When he was seventeen, Shinichi heard a recording of Schubert's Ave Maria, played by a famous violinist named Mischa Elman. He was amazed that a violin could make such a beautiful tone because he had thought it was just a toy!\n\nAfter this, Shinichi brought a violin home from the factory and taught himself to play. He would listen to a recording and try to imitate what he heard. A few years later he took violin lessons from a teacher in Tokyo. Then, when he was 22 years old, he went to Germany and studied with a famous teacher named Karl Klingler. Shinichi also met his wife Waltraud in Germany. They married and moved back to Japan, where he began to teach violin and play string quartet concerts with his brothers.\n\nShinichi had always loved children and became very interested in teaching them. He thought that children could learn music just as they learned to speak—starting when they were very young and hearing music all around them. He believed that all children have the talent to learn if they are taught well by loving parents and teachers. These were very unusual ideas at that time. If children did play an instrument, they started learning when they were ten or eleven. Also, most people thought that musical talent was a special thing that only a few people had.\n\nDr. Suzuki's young students learned to play very well and everyone was amazed when they performed. No one had ever seen so many young children playing music so beautifully. At first people thought all the students were musical geniuses. They did not understand Suzuki's idea that all children can learn if they are taught in the right way.\n\nFor many years Dr. Suzuki continued to work on his teaching method. He chose music that would help children learn to play. He even wrote some pieces himself (like the Twinkle Variations, Allegro, Perpetual Motion, and Etude). Teachers from many countries came to Japan to learn about his method of teaching, and Dr. Suzuki and his students traveled to play in other countries. Over the years, more and more teachers and parents became interested in Suzuki's ideas and began to teach children with his method. Now there are thousands of children around the world who have learned to play instruments through the Suzuki Method.\n\nThrough his teaching, Dr. Suzuki showed teachers and parents everywhere what children could do. He also believed that hearing and playing great music helped children become good people with beautiful, peaceful hearts. Dr. Suzuki hoped that these children would help bring peace and understanding to the world.

Here is an SI article, but I don't think it is what you were looking for. Try searching with all the relay member's names and anything else you remember about the article.\nGood Luck

I have no idea, but maybe you can ask someone Chinese. (It looks Chinese.) Or research what language it's from and look it up in an English-whatever that language is dictionary. If you can't find that type of dictionary, you might be able to look it up on the web.

The information highway is only as good as the input. I have found many mistakes while surfing for research material. It seems too many opinions are spicing up the Internet; but it lowers value to information. Case in point; I did some research on Chinese Shaolin. Since there were so many differing articles, I finally decided to get a translator and gain the correct information from some monks.
