Numbers are the tools she uses to uncover fascinating information about people and their behavior. As the daughter of an illegal Mexican immigrant, Marta Tienda understands the pain of growing up poor.

Marta vowed to use her creativity, strong spirit, and positive attitude to empower those who are less fortunate. Today Marta's expertise is helping government leaders create equal opportunities for millions of people, using numbers to understand why some people have more than others, like a better job, a college education, or a nicer house. "People Person" is the fascinating story of a Mexican American girl raised in a home without books who grew up to become one of the world's leading sociologists. Marta Tienda's life story bursts with bravery and determination - it will surely affect readers of all ages.
