Nguoi Viet Daily News was the first and largest daily newspaper published in Vietnamese in the United States. The newspaper was started by Yen Ngoc Do in 1978. Its name derives from người Việt, meaning "Vietnamese people".
Nguoi Viet Daily News began as a weekly four-page newspaper. The first issue, dated December 15, 1978, was printed in Do's garage in Orange County, California with the assistance of his entire family. Do financed the initial press run of 2,000 copies with $4,000 of his own savings.
Today, the newspaper has more than 60 employees and a daily circulation of more than 18,000.
