Bruce Lee
Born
Bruce Lee, shirtless and mid-stance, with Victoria Harbour and the Hong Kong Island skyline behind him on the Avenue of Stars in Tsim Sha Tsui. Chinese sculptor Cao Chong-en made the 2.5-meter bronze, unveiled on November 27, 2005, which would have been Lee's 65th birthday. The city he grew up in took decades to give him a monument; the Bruce Lee Club spent years lobbying and raising about $100,000 to make it happen.
