Heritage Month, FOX 11's Susan Hirasuna tells the story of how the Vietnamese community came to dominate the nail industry. Tippi Hedren, star of Alfred Hitchcock’s "The Birds and Marni," took an active role in the effort to help Vietnamese refugees and she wanted to help them find work in their new home. She went to visit them in a camp in Northern California and when they were fascinated by her polished nails, she brought her manicurist to teach them how to do nails.

"He really, really wanted me to do that. But I was worried, that’s the security for the family," explained Kien. Tam remembers how hard his parents worked to make the school succeed. He remembers the small plastic Christmas tree and opening gifts at work, not at home.
