Meanwhile, she taught high school art in New York and then in Oakland, California, in an alternative school for recent immigrants. She began learning to draw them and, over more than a decade, wrote The Best We Could Do while slowly working through her family’s history. While studying art education at New York University, she began to interview her family for a final project on Việt Nam, and she realized that comics would be the most appropriate medium for telling their story. Although she began exhibiting her work around the city, she soon changed paths and decided to become a public school teacher. She went on to study art and law as an undergraduate at UC Berkeley, then trained as a sculptor in New York and received an MFA. Three years later, she and her family escaped Việt Nam by boat to Malaysia and then to the United States, where she grew up in California. As she recounts in The Best We Could Do, Thi Bui was born in Sài Gòn, South Việt Nam, in early 1975, shortly before the end of the Vietnam War. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() “All of us at Kilter are incredibly proud to be supporting Vincenzo and Scott’s brilliant vision for bringing Gibson’s work to the screen.” With The Peripheral he brings us another look, and his vision is as clear, intoxicating, and terrifying as ever,” said Nolan and Joy. ![]() “35 years ago, William Gibson invented the future.
