Description: Scope/Content: An oral history of Thu Huyen, a Vietnamese refugee living Orange County. She was born in 1942 in Nam Dinh. The interview primarily focuses on her account of surviving the war, escaping the newly Communist country, and re-establishing her family in the United States. This interview also features Thu’s husband, Phuoc Tran. His account was more geared towards the political turmoil rather than the domestic difficulties.
Scope/Content: The objective of this project is to collect voluntary life narratives of Vietnamese American senior citizens living in The Grove Senior Apartments (Garden Grove, Calif.). Along with these audio-recorded life stories, we collected materials such as photographs and documents to be indexed and archived with their stories in UC Irvine Libraries Southeast Asian Archive, as part of the Vietnamese American Oral History Project.
