My dad is from Hué. This past Christmas, he and his friend shared their stories of their first American Christmas in 1975, how it was the saddest either of them could remember. Dad had no money, no family with him, and no hope of returning home (because of his anti-government literature he has yet to go back); luckily, his sponsors were journalists and helped him learn the ropes of American media. No matter how rough his business is doing today, I can never forget the importance of what he’s done to get here.
