Cheng Chui Ping (simplified Chinese: 郑翠萍; traditional Chinese: 鄭翠萍; pinyin: Zhèng Cuìpíng; Wade–Giles: Cheng Ts'ui-p'ing), also known as Sister Ping (萍姐 Píng Jiě; January 9, 1949 – April 24, 2014), ran a successful human smuggling operation between Hong Kong and New York City from 1984 until 2000. She was arrested in Hong Kong in 2000 and extradited back to the United States in 2003. She was held in U.S. Federal prison until her death in 2014. Nicknamed "The Mother of All Snakeheads", a translation of the Chinese word for "smuggler," her legacy is debated, with many Chinese immigrants in New York praising her actions and her generosity toward her fellow Chinese in the United States.
