A memoir, noted at Publishers Lunch:
"Director of strategic alliances for global think tank, TalentSmart, Lac D. Su's THE CRIP WALK, a coming-of-age memoir about his life as a first-generation Vietnamese refugee on the rough streets of LA, from his dramatic boat escape from Vietnam to joining the Asian Crips gang to eventually rising above his circumstances to go to college." Harper Perennial snapped it up. Here's Su's MySpace page.
