Work Force Fueled by Highly Skilled Immigrants
ST. LOUIS, Fred R. Conrad/The New York Times — After a career as a corporate executive with her name in brass on the office door, Amparo Kollman-Moore, an immigrant from Colombia, likes to drive a Jaguar and shop at Saks. “It was a good life,” she said, “a really good ride.” Amparo Kollman-Moore, 60, moved to St. Louis in the 1970s and is now a consultant and business school professor. As a member of this city’s economic elite, Ms. Kollman-Moore is not unusual among immigrants who live in St. Louis. According to a new analysis of census data, more than half of the working immigrants in this metropolitan area hold higher-paying white-collar jobs — as professionals, technicians or administrators — rather than lower-paying blue-collar and service jobs.
