American photographer Catherine Karnow – daughter of historian Stanley Karnow – arrived in Vietnam for the first time in 1990. In this decade, she had a few trips to Saigon. Thanks to her father’s prestige, she could travel throughout Vietnam. Favoring photos of scenery, people and the life in the city, Catherine was impressed by a growing Saigon after the reform period (1986). In picture: Saigonese women in 1995.
