Vietnamese language interview with Nguyễn Thượng Khâm Thiên, who was born in 1939 in Hanoi, Vietnam. He learned the folk art of making rice-based figures while imprisoned during the war. Title A name given to the resource Nguyễn, Thiên Khâm Thượng Subject The topic of the resource Vietnam War, 1961-1975 Oral biography Description An account of the resource Nguyen Thuong Kham Thien, whose real name is Nguyen Dai Hai, was born in 1939 in Hanoi. During the 1954 exodus of nearly 1 million people from the North to the South, his relatives all boarded ships going south. However, his father did not let the family go because he followed the resistance. In 1955, when land reform occurred, the North Vietnam government confiscated his family’s property and boat, and denounced his family members publicly. His parents were imprisoned even though his father was a party member. His grandfather used to be the Chief of the commune, and provide shelter for resistance fighters. During the struggle session, however, denouncers called him a wicked landlord and then shot him dead. Thien witnessed the tragedy with his own eyes, and vowed to avenge his family's suffering and his grandfather’s death. In 1956, after a “correction campaign” was launched, his parents were released. The family then relocated to Hanoi and settled in Kham Thien street. After that he studied electricity, then worked for the Electricity Department. In 1970, he switched to Hanoi Radio and Television Broadcasting. In 1972, he was lucky to survive during the B52 carpet bombing in Kham Thien street, which was a target of the Operation Linebacker II campaign. At first, he misunderstood that the United States had invaded and liberated the North. After this event, he changed his name from Nguyen Dai Hai to Nguyen Thuong Kham Thien. On April 30, 1975, when he heard the news that the North had won, he was very sad for the South. In 1979, the Vietnam-China border war broke out, his oldest son had to join the army but did not take part in direct combat on the battlefield. In 1980, Thien compiled his political ideas in a pamphlet for distribution, planning to urge the people to overthrow the communist government. However, he was arrested before he could hand out the leaflets and was sentenced to 10 years in prison. After returning from prison, he went to Saigon and worked as a sculptor, making rice-based figures to make a living. He planned to flee the country by crossing the borders. In 1994, he successfully fled to Bangkok, went to the US and French embassies and was accepted under political asylum. After moving to the United States, he settled in Houston, Texas and lived on SSI income. Nguyễn Thượng Khâm Thiên, tên thật là Nguyễn Đại Hải, sinh năm 1939 tại Hà Nội.

Alyssa Adams is the second wife of the late Eddie Adams, the combat photographer that won a Pulitzer prize for the image of General Nguyen Ngoc Loan executing a Viet Cong prisoner in Saigon during the Vietnam War. He later regretted the damage the photo caused to General Loan's reputation. She explains other work that she has come across after his death, including "A Day in the Life of Loan," a series of photographs that followed General Loan on a typical day. Personal correspondence and other materials were donated to The Briscoe Center at The University of Texas at Austin. She explains that he was most proud of a collection called, "The Boat of No Smiles," particularly because it may have influenced the Carter administration to continue to receive Vietnamese refugees during the years following the war.

In 2007, he performed with his hero and inspiration, Stevie Wonder. He has also created a foundation to support people with talent that are disabled.
