the Southern military force, he was born in 1970 in Vietnam. His father who participated
in the 1966 Central Vietnam uprising died in 1972 when he was two years old.
In 1975, one day before the fall of Saigon on April 30 ending the war of
attrition and the corruptible, inefficient systems of military government his
father protested, he left a collapsed South Vietnam. A Chinook piloted by his
uncle picked up him and his family from the centre of the capital at 4:AM for
nowhere but the ocean with no certainty of a safe destination. But ships
seemed to be waiting. Afterwards, he came to the US, where he settled. Tu
Huynh wrote poems and painted in his early age. Graduated from University of
Florida in Fine Art with Honours in 1995 he painted regularly ever since. He
first exhibited in Washington DC in 1999.
