Vicky Nguyen | Boat Baby

In this inspiring and deeply personal conversation, NBC News anchor Vicky Nguyen shares the powerful story behind her memoir Boat Baby—a journey from surviving Vietnam’s refugee crisis to becoming one of America’s leading Asian American journalists. With humor, heart, and unflinching honesty, Nguyen recounts her family’s escape from communist Vietnam, their harrowing experience with pirates at sea, and the challenges of growing up between cultures in the U.S. From childhood misadventures to breaking barriers in broadcast journalism, her story is a moving testament to resilience, identity, and the immigrant experience. This CCWA talk is both a celebration of family and a reflection on what it truly means to belong in America. Nguyen grew up in Eugene, Reno, San Jose, and Santa Rosa. She attended the University of San Francisco and spent over a decade at NBC Bay Area. Notes Thank you to food sponsor Tay Ho. Photo by Deborah Feingold.
