Description
Kiphan Kan is a Chinese woman who grew up in Vietnam for the first 16 years of her life. Her family had moved to Saigon to escape the regime of Mao Zedong in China. Most of Kiphan's childhood was haunted by the specter of war. Eventually, when it became clear that the United States and the South would lose the war, her family fled to Rwanda. Kiphan went to graduate school at the University of Southern California, and continues to live in Los Angeles with her loving family. [Profile bio]
