Statures to Remember Former AP Reporter Iris Chang

China will make two statues for Iris Chang, the late former female reporter of the Associated Press, for her exposure of "atrocities committed by Japanese aggressors" in China and the spirit to "dig up the historical truth." A group of eminent Chinese artists and scholars discuss the clay model of the work in Beijing June 21, 2005. Chang published her book The Rape of Nanking - The Forgotten Holocaust of World War II in 1997, which enabled Europeans and Americans to know the details of the Nanjing Massacre for the first time. She was also considered a key member in retrieving Diaries of John Rabe, which provides crucial records of the Nanjing Massacre. Chang was found dead of suicide in San Francisco at age 36 on November 9, 2004. (Xinhua photos)
