CNN: Hong Nguyen’s Vietnam

Last week I was sent out to Decatur to shoot some photos of a guy from Vietnam who had grown an ivy map on his home.  The story evolved from a story about interesting landscaping to his personal story about how he escaped Vietnam after serving in a reeducation camp for 10 years.

Jim Kavanagh was the reporter for the story and you can see it here.  Also, my portrait of Mr. Nguyen ran as the C1 on the front page of CNN.com during the early afternoon Wednesday.
