BOAT BABY

Award-winning NBC News Anchor and Chief Consumer Investigative Correspondent Vicky Nguyen delivers her memoir with the same passion and rapid-fire delivery that she brings to her television work. This audiobook offers great insight into the talented journalist. Born in Saigon, Nguyen fled to a Malaysian refugee camp with her family, finally immigrating to the U.S., where she continues to experience the pain of racism. Her ambitious quest for each TV job is carefully balanced with her concern for how her family will be affected as she climbs the career ladder. Nguyen expresses palpable admiration for her father's work ethic and her mother's dedication to family, along with her husband Brian's love, all of which shaped her into the independent career woman, daughter, wife, and mother she is today.
