    • Growing Up in America

    University professor and author Viet Thanh Nguyen shares his personal story of challenges and success. This interview was originally published by Maureen LittleJohn for Culture Magazin.

    Viet Thanh Nguyen came to the the United States with his family in 1975. He was four and his brother was ten. His parents opened a grocery store, their business flourished and Viet and his brother went on to become successful university professors. It sounds like the American Dream.

I had some talent for academic research and writing, but I had no idea of what it meant to be a teacher. I began learning that skill in graduate school, and found I had some ability there, too. This was how I became a professor. Although I enjoyed the work of teaching and research, I promised myself that when I earned tenure, I would return to writing fiction with greater dedication. In my thirties, that is what happened. I spent my thirties doing research for a book on the Vietnam War and memory, and writing a short story collection. The experience of writing that collection was mostly miserable, but it taught me how to be a w
