1. Describe Chris Gardner’s journey in achieving the American Dream (an overview)

His journey begins as a man grappling with financial challenges, earning a living by selling bone scanners.

Unfortunately, his sales aren't as successful as he'd hoped, with doctors finding the scanner prices too steep.

Adding to the pressure, his wife Linda also contributes to the family income by working in a hotel laundry, which strains their relationship.

Eventually, Linda travels to New York, leaving Chris Gardner to care for their son, Christopher. Despite facing the grim prospect of homelessness due to financial struggles and scanner sales, Chris refuses to surrender. He redoubles his efforts, determined to overcome these hardships.
