Studio portrait of Sithy Yi and her sisters taken in Phnom Penh, c. 1974 before the Khmer Rouge took control of Cambodia. The family surname prior to the Khmer Rouge was Diep, but they used Yi during the Khmer Rouge because the Diep family was marked for execution. From left to right are Sithy (5 yrs old) the family maid (unidentified), Sitheavy (2 yrs old, later changed her name to Jennifer Diep), and Sithea (4 yrs. old).
