Biography

Krall was born in Vietnam, and lived there during the French administration of the Indochine colony. She was nine years old at the signing of the Geneva Conference, which divided Vietnam into North and South Vietnam. Yung's mother chose to remain in South Vietnam to raise her children while her husband joined the Communist cause in the North with the NLF, eventually becoming Hanoi's ambassador to the U.S.S.R.. Krall's father remained in the North for the greater part of her upbringing.

Krall gained employment working for American vendors on a U.S. Navy base near Saigon where she met Lt. John Krall, a U.S. Navy pilot, whom she later married. The two of them moved to the United States.
