Regrettably, Mr. Hye, I don't believe so.

Too often, we only find out about accomplished members of the Armenian community posthumously. Sometimes, many years after they passed away without little or no fanfare.

I think there are many accomplished persons in Southern California that have obtained little or no recognition for their achievements.

That's why people like Kim Kardashian can claim to be a socialite because members of our own community don't even know who is prominent in our community and why.
