Poet Ariana Lee draws inspiration from Asian immigrant family

HOUSTON, Texas -- As Houston Youth Poet Laureate, Ariana Lee writes about the city from the Houston Astros to Hurricane Harvey.

The 18-year-old also voices her identity, often gathering inspiration from her Asian immigrant family.

"I've thought a lot of what does it mean to come to a country, what does it mean to be American, what does it mean for me as an Asian American to connect to my Asian identity," Lee said.
