In today's NY Times, Metro Section B1, there is a photo of Maplewood Ave in the snow. There is an aditional photo a few pages in. What caught my eye, besides being described as outside Newark, was the photos' byline. Dith Pran, who I believe was the subject of The Killing Fields, and a survivor of the Cambodian Holocaust, is credited. Anyone know if he lives in town? What a fancinating man. NCJ aka LL |

Interesting! It would be great to know this, as I think he would be an interesting neighbor to have on MOL (unless, of course, if he's on MOL already). |

Dith Pran covers NJ for the Times, but doesn't live in Maplewood. He is a colleague of mine, and is a very interesting and a neat guy--very involved in anti-genocide activities, including talking to school groups. His websites include Websites : WWW.DithPran.Org http://www.heroism.org/class/1970/pran.html http://www.cambodianmusic.com/read_news.asp http://www.providence.edu/art/cambodian/courses/tribute.html
