《一筆穿雲》封面上的副標題寫著「永遠的華府特派員 劉屏的軍魂國魂與靈魂」 。
劉屏，一個出自清苦家庭的空軍子弟，在南台灣的屏東，仰頭看著劃過天際的軍機長大。和許多浮雲遊子一樣，懷著理想與夢想，飄洋過海來到美國首府，希望在新生活裡能闖蕩出自己的「新聞天地」。23年後，終身以新聞工作為職志的劉屏於去年6月4日歸天家，被譽為永遠的華府特派員！
劉屏，採訪過無數美台政要，對時事觀察細微，大筆如椽，樹立了記者的標竿。他曾獲廣播金鐘獎有關新聞獎項之入圍或得獎前後10次，並榮獲第20屆金鐘獎新聞節目主持人獎。在新聞圈裡，他從廣播起家，是現場轉播球賽的翹楚，既跨足平面媒體報紙、雜誌，又登上電視及網路媒體平台。
劉屏，虔誠的基督徒，溫良恭儉，正直和善，吃苦耐勞，樂於助人，人生態度詼諧幽默、積極進取；喜愛說學逗唱，經常妙語如珠，帶來滿室春風。2019年春，罹患急性白血病，儘管病痛，住院時仍堅持每日寫新聞和代禱信。他的代禱信收集在《一筆穿雲》裡的「住院手札」，內容感人，曾有讀者回應說，邊看邊淚流。
為了完成劉屏的遺願，劉屏的妻子張麗芳在朋友熱心的協助下，從劉屏歷年來的專欄文章和新聞報導裡，篩選、整理、分類，於去年11月出版《一筆穿雲：永遠的華府特派員 劉屏的軍魂國魂與靈魂》。這本書已由美國國會圖書館和洛城圖書館收藏，另外，哈佛大學燕京圖書館以及多所具有亞洲圖書收藏的著名大學，例如加州大學柏克萊分校、密西根大學等也都喜獲圖書捐贈。
在網路書友會中，張麗芳女士應邀分享出版《一筆穿雲》的心路歷程以及劉屏的故事。我們將可以從中知曉一位新聞記者典範的精神和努力，尤其是，他如何在美國異鄉傳承中華傳統文化。

一筆穿雲：永遠的華府特派員劉屏的軍魂國魂與靈魂 A Penstroke Through the Clouds: Forever Washington’s Correspondent Liu Ping and His Military Spirit, National Spirit and Soul
The late Liu Ping, a well-known correspondent for The China Times, a newspaper published in Taiwan, spent 23 years in Washington, D.C. interviewing countless US and Taiwan dignitaries and following current affairs in detail, setting a benchmark for reporters. His articles have spurred analysis of the situation at home and abroad, and he has also reported on some important topics (such as comfort women, etc.), following many stories through time and offering impactful commentary. Through his book, readers can be inspired by his spirit, efforts, and the stories he left behind, which are all models of journalism.
In this virtual presentation, Mr. Ping Liu's wife, Li-fang Liu (Deputy Executive Director, Chinese Culture and Community Service Center in Gaithersburg, MD) will talk about the creation and publication of this book and its behind-the-scene stories. Mrs. Liu will share how Chinese culture and heritage impacts the Liu family's immigration story. Mrs. Liu's presentation will be in Chinese. English interpretation is available from her daughter.
A special virtual cultural event to celebrate Asian Pacific Heritage Month in May.
