France Nuyen Interviewed

France Nuyen was interviewed recently by The Lambs, a theatrical organization started way back in 1874! This interview is special, as Ms. Nuyen (spelled her with the extra "g" as the name is spelled in Vietnam) does not give or asked to give interviews. Enjoy!

Four in One

BURKE'S LAW was a very successful TV series with Gene Barry that ran from 1963 to 1966. In the 1964 episode, "Who Killed the Paper Dragon," four Asian-American actresses appeared on the show. Primarily, there was Ginny Tiu and Miyoshi Umeki, playing daughter and mother. Secondary roles were played by Tura Santana, as a dancer in a private room, and June Kim, as a hostess. One of the main male roles was played by James Shigeta, who in the film FLOWER DRUM SONG fell in love with...Miyoshi Umeki.
