Background
Leung emigrated to the United States in 1970 using a Republic of China passport stating that she was born on May 1, 1954, in Guangzhou. (The information about Leung's background is unclear because her official immigration documents significantly differ from what Leung herself has revealed about her background.) Leung enrolled at Washington Irving High School in New York City, New York and graduated in June 1972. She became a permanent resident alien on August 7, 1972.
Leung attended and obtained an undergraduate degree from Cornell University in 1976. She then went on and obtained a Masters of Business Administration from the University of Chicago. It was somewhere during this time as a student that Leung was contacted by the FBI for information on some of her acquaintances.
