My family and I went to the Angkor Dance Troupe's annual fundraiser last weekend, and I was happy to catch up with all three young people featured in my film Monkey Dance - Linda Sou, Sochenda Uch, and Samnang Hor. All three are living in Lowell after finishing college, and giving back to their community in different ways.I was especially pleased to see that Linda is now Assistant Artistic Director of the troupe, and Samnang is still dancing swa pol, the monkey dance - along with his new roles as Lowell High School algebra teacher, gymnastic coach, husband, and .... father! He and his wife had a baby girl five months ago. Congratulations to their family!
