| Submission declined on 2 July 2024 by MicrobiologyMarcus (talk). This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia. Declined by MicrobiologyMarcus 5 months ago. | |

Khuê Phạm (born 1982 in West-Berlin) is a Vietnamese-German journalist and author.
Biography and Career
[edit]Khuê Phạm was born in a Vietnamese family in Berlin. She studied Media and Communications at Goldsmiths College and Sociology at the London School of Economics. Before training at the Henri-Nannen-School of journalism in Hamburg, Phạm worked as a producer at NPR ’s Berlin bureau. In 2010, she became an editor at the weekly Die Zeit, writing about politics and culture. Specializing in long-form journalism, she has co-written an investigation into the Essex Lorry deaths.[1] She was the first journalist to profile Kevin Spacey before his sexual-assault trial in 2023. She has also interviewed Chimamanda Adichie, Ocean Vuong and Anna Wintour. In 2012, she co-wrote “Wir neuen Deutschen“, a non-fiction book about second-generation immigrants in Germany.[2] Her debut novel “Wo auch immer ihr seid” was published in 2020 and was chosen for the literature program of Berlinale "Books at Berlinale" in 2022.[3] One year later, it was adapted to the stage as “Kim”.[4] The English translation of the novel by Daryl Lindsey and Charles Hawley as “Brothers and Ghosts” was released in 2024.[5] It is a multi-generational drama across three continents, revolving around a long-buried family secret leading back to the Vietnam War. Set in Berlin, Saigon and California, it tells the story a young woman discovering the traumatic past of her Vietnamese family.[6][7]
Khuê Phạm is a founding member of PEN Berlin[8] and was invited by the Haus der Kulturen der Welt in 2023 and 2024 to be part of the jury for the International Literature Prize for foreign literature translated into German.[9][10]
