In April 2005, T.E. returned two diaries of Dang Thuy Tram on a CD to her remaining family in Ha Noi. In a number of months, the family published a best-selling Vietnamese version of “Nhat Ky Dang Thuy Tram” (The Diaries of Dang Thuy Tram). In 2008, Random House published english version, Last Night I Dreamed of Peace, the Diaries of Dang Thuy Tram. A Vietnamese feature was recently made of the diaries. In thanks for his return of Thuy’s diaries, T.E. is the only American invited to Ho Chi Minh’s war-time base, Da Chong.

T.E. is the author of several articles and photographs about the American War in vietnam war, and a Distinguished Lecturer with the Organization of American Historians. He is developing a photographic book  “  One Soldier’s Heart: the Emotional Impact of War.”

T.E.’s images will trigger visual intellect and emotions to better understand the emotional effects of war on soldiers, our families, and nation. T.E.’s art photographs are a direct result and respite to his own emotional work as a recent embeded freelance photographer inIraqandAfghanistan. These photographs of nature’s beings offers a continued sense of joy and wonder about the world in which we live.
