Born in Shanghai, China, he moved to the United States with his family
at the age of 8. Wang later founded CA Technologies and led several Long
Island-based philanthropic efforts.

I met him when he and Russ Artzt ran a small company called Standard
Data out of a grubby midtown Manhattan office. I sure wouldn't have
guessed what he'd accomplish in CA. Along with philanthropies mentioned,
he donated generously to Brooklyn technical High School, which I
attended a few yeas after him. In the minimal dealings I had with him --
very early, and then briefly in mid-1990s -- he was very pleasant.
