Richard Martin doesn’t wait for fish. He dives for them, armed only with a spear gun, knife, and the air in his lungs. For over seven decades, Richard has fished underwater around the country, side by side with sharks, jellyfish, and species ready to fight back. He also helped design, build, and test the spacesuits worn by the astronauts during the Apollo Program. A funny, candid, remarkable reminiscence from a man who grabbed life and yanked it to him, just as he did the fish he caught.

Hai Do continues his remarkable story, about his career in journalism as a photographer, journalist, and manager at UPI, Agence France-Press, Gannet, and the Philadelphia Inquirer. He covered wars, terrorist attacks, World Series, Super Bowls and news around world, before moving to Voice of America, where he is the Chief of the Learning English Division. A former refugee now helping other refugees around the world, Hai’s story is compelling, inspiring saga of a life defined by him, not the barriers he encountered.

Hai Do grew up in the middle of the Vietnam war, escaped Saigon when the city fell, and survived a harrowing journey on an overcrowded boat on the South China Sea. Instead of giving into fear, he used these harsh lessons to forge a life and career that has taken full advantage of all America has to offer. This episode focuses on his life in Vietnam, his family’s courageous escape, and his arrival in the United States. It’s a story of courage, determination and ultimately triumph.
