Viet Thanh Nguyen

Viet Thanh Nguyen (Vietnamese: Nguyễn Thanh Việt; born March 13, 1971[a]) is a Vietnamese-American professor and novelist. He is the Aerol Arnold Chair of English and Professor of English and American Studies and Ethnicity at the University of Southern California.[3][4]

Nguyen's debut novel, The Sympathizer, won the 2016 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction,[5] the Dayton Literary Peace Prize,[6] the Center for Fiction First Novel Prize,[7] and many other accolades.

He was awarded a MacArthur Foundation Fellowship[8][9] and a Guggenheim Fellowship in 2017.[10][11]

Nguyen is a regular contributor, op-ed columnist for The New York Times, covering immigration, refugees, politics, culture, and Southeast Asia.[12]

He is a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences,[13][14] and in 2020 was elected as the first Asian-American member of the Pulitzer Prize Board in its 103-year-history.[15][16][17]

Early life and education

Nguyen was born in Ban Mê Thuột, South Vietnam in 1971.[18] He was the son of Linda Thanh Nguyen and Joseph Thanh Nguyen,[19] refugees from North Vietnam who had moved south in 1954.[20][21] Nguyen's mother's real name is Nguyễn Thị Bảy; she is a highly influential person in his life. In an excerpt from his book A Man of Two Faces: A Memoir, A History, A Memorial (2023), Nguyen writes: "People like Má[b] who will not be remembered by History are also a part of History, drafted as reluctant players in horrific wars... Unlike soldiers, these civilians, many of them women and children, never get the recognition they deserve. Some endure more terror, see more horror, than some soldiers."[19][22]

After the fall of Saigon in 1975, Nguyen's family fled to the United States.[23] They left behind Viet's 16-year-old adopted sister, whom he did not see again for nearly 30 years.[20] His family first settled in Fort Indiantown Gap, one of four American camps that accommodated refugees from Vietnam,[24] then moved to Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, until 1978.[25][26] San Jose, California was the Nguyen family's next destination, where his parents opened a Vietnamese grocery store called SàiGòn Mới,[27] one of the first of its kind in the area.[28] On Christmas Eve, when Nguyen was nine years old, his parents survived being shot during a robbery at their store.[29][30] When he was 16, a gunman broke into the family's house and threatened them. Nguyen's mother ran into the street screaming for help and saved everyone's lives.[19][31]

Seven years after arriving in America, Nguyen's older brother, Tung Thanh Nguyen (Nguyễn Thanh Tùng), whom he calls "the original refugee success story", entered Harvard University.[32][33] Tung graduated four years later with a B.A. in philosophy,[34] and earned an M.D. in 1991 from Stanford University.[35] Tung Nguyen is the Stephen J. McPhee, MD Endowed Chair in General Internal Medicine and Professor of Medicine at the University of California, San Francisco.[36][37] He also served as a Commissioner on President Barack Obama’s Advisory Commission on Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders (2011–14) and as the Chair of the Commission (2014–17).[38][39]

As a child, Nguyen often enjoyed reading literature about the Vietnam War, preferably those from the Vietnamese perspectives, which were rather rare at the time in comparison with the overwhelming amount of American narratives.[40] While growing up in San Jose, Nguyen attended St. Patrick School, a Catholic elementary school,[26] and Bellarmine College Preparatory.[41]

Nguyen attended UCLA for a quarter and University of California, Riverside for a year before finishing his studies at University of California, Berkeley.[42][43][44] He graduated Phi Beta Kappa in 1992 with a Bachelor of Arts in English and Ethnic Studies.[45][46][3] At the age of 26, he earned a PhD in English from Berkeley in 1997.[47][48]

Teaching career

In 1997, Nguyen moved to Los Angeles for a teaching position as an assistant professor at the University of Southern California in both the English Department, and in the American Studies and Ethnicity Department.[46] In 2003, he became an associate professor in the two departments.[49][50]

He was appointed the 2023 Charles Eliot Norton Professor of Poetry at Harvard University and presented a series of six lectures titled To Save and To Destroy: On Writing as an Other. His series is the first to be given in person on Harvard’s campus since 2018.[51]

In addition to teaching and writing, Nguyen serves as cultural critic-at-large for the Los Angeles Times,[52] he is also the founder and editor of diaCRITICS, a blog for the Diasporic Vietnamese Artists Network.[53][54]

Novels

Nguyen's debut novel, The Sympathizer was published in 2015 by the Grove Press/Atlantic. The Sympathizer won the 2016 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction.[55][56] The Sympathizer further won the Center for Fiction First Novel Prize, the Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Fiction from the American Library Association, and the Asian/Pacific American Award for Literature in Fiction from the Asian/Pacific American Librarians Association.[57][58] The book additionally won the Edgar Award for Best First Novel from an American Author from the Mystery Writers of America,[59] and was a finalist in the PEN/Faulkner Award for Fiction,[60] and the PEN/Robert W. Bingham Prize for Debut Fiction.[61] The novel has also won the Dayton Literary Peace Prize.[62] The New York Times included The Sympathizer among the Book Review's "Editors' Choice" selection of new books when the book debuted,[63] and in its list of "Notable Books of 2015".[64] The novel also made it onto numerous other "Books of the Year" lists, including those of The Guardian, The Wall Street Journal, and The Washington Post.[65][66] Nguyen's second novel, The Committed, which continues the story of The Sympathizer, was published in 2021.[67]

Nguyen's short fiction has been published in Best New American Voices 2007 ("A Correct Life"),[68] Manoa ("Better Homes and Gardens"),[69][70] Narrative Magazine ("Someone Else Besides You", "Arthur Arellano", and "Fatherland",[71] which was a prize winner in the 2011 Winter Fiction Contest),[72] TriQuarterly ("The War Years" - Issue 135/136), The Good Men Project ("Look At Me"),[73] the Chicago Tribune ("The Americans", also a 2010 Nelson Algren Short Story Awards finalist),[74] and Gulf Coast, where his story won the 2007 Fiction Prize.[75]

In May 2008, Nguyen is one of the contributing authors of A Stranger Among Us: Stories of Cross-Cultural Collision and Connection published by OV Books, Other Voices, Inc.[76] In February 2017, Nguyen continued to collaborate with Grove Press to publish a book of short stories entitled The Refugees.[77]

Non-fiction

Nguyen is the editor of The Displaced: Refugee Writers on Refugee Lives, which includes essays by 17 fellow refugee writers from Mexico, Bosnia, Iran, Afghanistan, Soviet Ukraine, Hungary, Chile, and Ethiopia, among other countries.[78]

Nguyen has also released a non-fiction book published by the Harvard University Press in March 2016 entitled Nothing Ever Dies: Vietnam and the Memory of War, which served as a critical bookend to a creative project whose fictional bookend was The Sympathizer".[79][citation needed] According to Nguyen's website, the book Nothing Ever Dies "examines how the so-called Vietnam War has been remembered by many countries and people, from the US to Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, and South Korea."[80] Kirkus Reviews has also called the book "a powerful reflection on how we choose to remember and forget."[81] The book is a National Book Award finalist.[82]

In 2002, Nguyen published a treatise entitled Race and Resistance: Literature and Politics in Asian America (Oxford University Press).[83] Nguyen has also co-edited a treatise entitled Transpacific Studies: Framing an Emerging Field (University of Hawaiʻi Press, 2014) along with Janet Hoskins.[84]

Nguyen's non-fiction articles and essays have appeared in journals and books, including PMLA, American Literary History, Western American Literature, positions: east asia cultures critique, The New Centennial Review, Postmodern Culture, The Japanese Journal of American Studies, and Asian American Studies After Critical Mass.[85] In an opinion column in the New York Times, Nguyen discussed having been a refugee and characterized refugees as heroic.[86]

Nguyen and illustrator Thi Bui, along with their respective children, collaborated on a children's book titled Chicken of the Sea.[87]

Personal life

In 2016, Nguyen spoke out for Palestinian rights by supporting the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement.[88] In 2023, after Nguyen signed an open letter in the London Review of Books urging "an end to violence and destruction in Palestine" because of the war between Israel and Hamas, a Jewish organization at the 92nd Street Y canceled a scheduled reading by Nguyen without explanation.[89] After the cancellation, other authors pulled out of the centre's upcoming programming schedule,[90] and at least two 92NY employees resigned.[91][92] On Instagram, Nguyen wrote: "I have no regrets about anything I have said or done in regards to Palestine, Israel, or the occupation and war".[93]

Nguyen is married to Lan Duong, a faculty member in cinema and media studies at USC and a poet, who also grew up in San Jose after coming to the United States as a young refugee.[94] They have two children and live in Pasadena, California.[95]
