Surviving by their wits, these displaced children of the sea create their own primitive society amid the dispirited and desperate adults awaiting sponsors in the U.S. At the age of eight in 1979, the Vietnam-born actress and her seven-years-old sister were separated from their parents and left their village in central Vietnam as boat people. Their mother and older brother stayed behind with her other children. The sisters lived in refugee camps in Hong Kong for three months, where they were reunited with their father. They then immigrated to California before reuniting with their fi ve other siblings. Her mother fi nally reunited with the family four years later. Hiep was a premed student at UC-Davis, majoring in physiology, when she came to the open casting call with one of her sisters for the Oliver Stone fi lm Heaven & Earth (1993) that was being held at San Jose State University because several of her friends were doing it for fun. She was one of the sixteen thousand Vietnamese Americans seen by casting scouts for the fi lm and was the one, out of the thousands, who got the starring role of Le Ly Hayslip.

Above all, Hiep is the proud mother of two. Author Hiep Thi Le Co-founder Jill Powell "Since I've know her from, Hiep always turned something negative into a positive. As a child, she faced her dangers, adversities and self doubts with an innocence and sense of adventure which refl ects the true resilience of refugee children separated from their families and left to fend for themselves." -Le Ly Hayslip (Heaven and Earth ) "Most of us 'come-of-age' not just once, but many times as we navigate life's passages. Hiep's harrowing, true-life journey from innocent village girl to street-wise refugee--told with charm, humor, and precocious wisdom--turns a boat-person's Lord of the Flies into a true Vietnamese Exodus: the portrait of a blossoming young American painted with a bamboo brush. Like a river fl owing to the sea, Hiep's story sweeps us past many amazing people, places, and events that most of us can scarcely imagine. It's a voyage you won't want to miss." - Jay Wurts, coauthor of When Heaven and Earth Changed Places
