bony Iman Dallas never got to see her father’s face, and even after a lifetime of seeking, she still only has a hazy notion of what he looked like. “The only picture that I had of him growing up, he had really dark, like ‘70s-style glasses on. So, I couldn’t tell what his face looked like really, because the glasses were so big. But whenever I’d meet someone who knew him, they’d say, ‘Oh, you have his eyes. You have his nose and you have his eyes,’ ” she said. “So, to complete his face in the paintings or the drawings I would do of him, I would just draw my eyes in their place.” The Oklahoma City artist picked the title “Through Abahay’s Eyes,” or “Through My Father’s Eyes,” for the solo show of the most intimate work of her career: A series of paintings chronicling the long-awaited discovery of the family, history and heritage of her late biological father, Said Osman, a Somali citizen

DALLAS CONTINUED FROM 5L who died in Oklahoma under mysterious circumstances before she was born. “In this whole process, I’ve been learning so much about him, so in that sense it’s like ‘Through Abahay’s Eyes’ is trying to understand the world through his eyes, trying to understand the place that he came from and learn about it over time,” she said. An exhibit more than 15 years in the making, “Through Abahay’s Eyes” will be on view through April 29 at The Paseo Plunge. “I would definitely say she’s one of the premier rising artists in Oklahoma City ... whose name is really getting more and more known locally, statewide and regionally, and being able to see that intersect with this project that she’s been pouring her soul into for years now," said Charles Martin, marketing manager for The Paseo Plunge and creative director for Literati Press Comics & Novels.
THE HEART IN HER NAME When Dallas signs her artwork with her initials, she carefully makes the three letters come together to form a heart. “I never want to deny any part of myself. So, Ebony, to me, is the name that my mother gave me, and then Iman ... is Somali, that’s the name I feel like I got from my biological father. And then Dallas is from my adoptive father,” she said. “There are three big families on all sides, so I just never want to deny any of my people.” Born and raised in Oklahoma, Dallas grew up with both a mother and father, since her mother, Viola, met and married Wayne Dallas, when her oldest daughter was just a toddler. He adopted Ebony, who said her family never made distinctions like half-siblings or adoptive children. But the artist said her mother also never hid the truth about her biological father, including the suspicious circumstances of his death. Born in Hargeisa, Somalia (which is now the capital of the independent Republic of Somaliland), Osman was found hanging in his dorm room on an
LOOKATOKC.COM
Oklahoma college campus in April 4, 1980, a week after he had been in an altercation with police in which he was knocked unconscious and sustained a large gash on his forehead. Her mother, who had been dating Osman for a few years, was three months pregnant with Ebony at the time. Although the official ruling was suicide, there were also reasons to suspect foul play. “My mother always told me, ‘Ebony, there’s two stories,’ ” Dallas said, who is continuing to dig into the circumstances around her father’s death. “In the police report you have all these just strange things. ... I’m still in the process of putting it together.” Growing up, Dallas said she came to believe her biological father committed suicide and grappled with embarrassment and anger. At the same time, she longed to know more about her Somali heritage. “When I was in college, I would basically use art as a means of ... learning about Somalia. So, I Googled some images of Somalia, and this picture of three women dancing popped up. So, I painted it for one of my final senior projects. And then years later, after I actually met my family and went to my first Somali wedding ... I realized I’d painting a wedding and had no idea,” she said, adding that the painting, which she has since revamped, is included in her new exhibit. “It has so much more meaning now that I’m learning so much more.” After earning her bachelor's degree at the University of Central Oklahoma, she moved to Oakland, California, to pursue a career in advertising, then her master of fine arts in design at the California College of the Arts. In San Francisco, a chance meeting at a nightclub helped her connect to her longlost family.
AN UNEXPECTED ENCOUNTER Two months after moving to California, Dallas was at a dance club when a guy started a conversation with her sister, Krystal. Noticing that his friend looked East African, Dallas asked where he was from, and within moments, the stranger, a Somali named Hakim Gulaid, told her,
“I know your family.” “He didn’t even know my name. He just said, ‘I know your family.’ I realize now how small the Somali community is: People know each other worldwide; it’s crazy,” she said. “But I didn’t know that, of course, then. So, I didn’t believe it at first. At first, I just said, ‘Yeah, right.’ ” But Gulaid’s father had been best friends with Dallas’ grandfather in Somalia, and he had been dating one of her cousins in 1998 when her grandmother, Amina Jama, had come to California to stay with family and launched an ultimately unsuccessful search for her late son’s daughter. “They hired a private investigator to try to find me,” Dallas said. “But they had my last name wrong because mom had gotten married and my dad adopted me, so my last name changed. And they had my birthday wrong because everywhere else in the world 10-5-80 means May 10 and not Oct. 5. ... So, they didn’t have any connections.” Thanks to Gulaid, she and her family were able, at long last, to make those connections.
PAINTING THROUGH THE PROCESS Since that chance encounter in 2004, Dallas has traveled to Africa at least eight times to visit her family and delve into her heritage. “You may have this picture of what something is in your mind, like there’s this picture of Africa that’s shown a lot in America that it’s easy to just say ‘OK, it’s a blanket statement. This is Africa.’ But then you go to different countries and you see the different cultures, you see the different traditions and things like that, and it just paints a more holistic view. You can the diversity,” said Dallas, who teaches African aesthetics as an adjunct faculty member at the University of Oklahoma. “How I may have pictured Somalia or Somaliland before I had the chance to go is very, very different. ... Some of the other paintings I would paint, they would be of giraffes or elephants — and neither of those exist in the desert,” she added with a laugh. “So, it definitely continues to evolve over time.”
Talking with her father’s family and friends, including his college roommate, she said she no longer believes he committed suicide and has been working to get more information about his death. “Over the years when I have told people the story about how I met my family and that whole experience, one of the first thing that comes out is ‘You should write a book,’ ” she said. “I definitely believe it’s important to tell the story just because ... who knows how many stories have gone untold like this?” Through Literati Press, she plans to publish a memoir as well as a children’s book, and Martin said he is eager not only to show her paintings at The Paseo Plunge but also to begin digitizing the images for the books, which he hopes to release in the next year. “Her story is very, very powerful and very timely. It’s ultimately the immigrant’s tale of a man coming to the U.S. to try to find a better place for himself and for his family, and unfortunately, America’s racial divide kind of getting in the way,” Martin said. “She’s a powerful artist of really beautiful work. Her work just seems to always kind of be a breathing thing with an amazing array of colors and imagery that just kind of flows and swirls like water. I’ve always been really compelled by her work, and knowing how well she has knit these pieces together to tell a story just makes it that much more interesting.” For Dallas, she even has used her art to revise one part of her story. Although many of her family’s photographs were destroyed in the Somali Civil War, she has collected five additional photos of her late father. She combined those with an image of her aunt holding her as a baby and the view of her own face in the mirror to create a painting called "Kernel of Eternity,” which depicts her father doing what he never got to do in real life: Holding his infant daughter. “I cried the whole time I painted it, just because I wonder what he would have been like as a father, if he would have been like that protective dad type,” Dallas said. “The process of writing and painting, it has helped me to heal. If in any way it’s able to inspire people, then that’s what I hope for.”

‘Isle of Dogs’ wags through an even weirder Wes Anderson path BY NATHAN POPPE LOOKatOKC Editor

es Anderson is a top dog when it comes to creating his own quirky, cinematic language and painstaking aesthetic details. There’s no shortage of both in his second fulllength, stop-motion animated epic “Isle of Dogs.” It’s a weird sorta film, even for him. Swashed in a Japanese-inspired glow, the film follows a pack of dogs who’ve been kicked out of a fictional Megasaki City and dumped at the tick, rat and flea infested Trash Island. They meet a 12-year-old kiddo named Atari (Royu Rankin) who disobeys his tyrannical uncle and crash lands a Junior-Turbo Prop in search of his furry bodyguard Spots, voiced by Anderson newcomer Liev Schreiber. There’s a good chance you’ve heard about the film’s alleged use of cultural appropriation. Anderson

is a white director combining his world-building imagination with an appreciation for Japanese films. Quentin Tarantino’s twin “Kill Bill” flicks did the same thing 15 years ago without a hint of controversy in my memory. But times are changing, and it’s up to you how much you’ll let that hinder your choice to see the movie. I didn’t find anything too distracting — besides a giddy theatergoer who laughed hysterically at every. Single. Joke. And I think “Isle of Dogs” works because Anderson is doing all of this with honest love. I have no interest in defending his every choice, but the director didn’t aim to make a documentary here. I don’t look at “The Life Aquatic” as a biopic of Jacques Cousteau or “The Grand Budapest Hotel” as a reliable history of the World Wars. I see these films to visit an auteur’s head space and watch how he builds upon a canvas. I’m also reminded of the recent Oklahoma-produced documentary “Far Western,” which chronicles several Japanese musicians’ love of country and western music. Who
are we to say these musicians don’t appreciate Woody Guthrie or Bob Wills as much as we do just because they don’t come from the same country? Everything here is make believe. It’s funky film where deadpan-humored dogs voiced by Bob Balaban (King) and Bill Murray (Boss) are normal and puppies creepily whine like human babies. The premise hangs on an evil mayor who campaigns on killing dogs all while he and the other Japanese characters don’t get subtitles. “Isle of Dogs” is a PG-13 film that looks like it was made for kids, but that’s not the intended audience. I’m a believer that just because a movie is animated doesn’t mean it has to appeal to the G-rated crowd but please know this might not be a fit for youngsters. A few minutes into the film, one dog tells another he heard a rumor about another pupper hanging himself with his own leash right before weighing in on a show dog that may — or may not SEE ‘DOGS’, 9L

‘DOGS’ CONTINUED FROM 8L have — mated with their friend. It’s funny in the sense that “Isle of Dogs” is making a cheeky commentary about how easy it is to spread false information — looking at you internet trolls — but I don’t think it’ll satisfy the “Fantastic Mr. Fox” crowd. If you’ve seen an Anderson film in the past few years then a lot of “Isle of Dogs” will feel familiar. Behind the visual buffet, it’s got the same fast-talking, convoluted plans gone wrong and charming soundtrack moments that populate every one of Wes’ features. There’s plenty to enjoy — especially the enormous collection of voice actors — but my interest in the overpopulated cast wore a little thin about halfway through. Like Steve Zissou’s zany crew, many characters feel like set dressing. Too much of “Isle of Dogs” was simply there to look pretty as opposed to serving the story. Anderson never loses the plot, but “Isle of Dogs” didn’t bite without enough new ideas for me to walk away with tail wagging. It might be my least favorite of his films. Like a stray dog running along a highway, it’s difficult to love. “Isle of Dogs” aims to be more sentimental than Anderson’s previous works. The movie’s still too familiar-feeling yet it’s impossible to ignore the spectacular effort. Every moment feels handmade. It just might not be your preferred pedigree.

Red City Radio returns with uplifting punk rock EP BY NATHAN POPPE LOOKatOKC Editor

arrett Dale is half man and half SkyTiger. But at the moment he’s tired from a rehearsal session, and the Red City Radio frontman is hunkered down at a HiLo Club bar top. If you haven’t been to the compact venue, it’s got a reputation for being a dive bar’s dive bar. Also, try picturing the opposite of the Braum’s that was proposed to replace the Classen Circle mainstay last year. In a lot of ways, it’s home.
“I love this place a lot,” Dale says between sips of tequila and acknowledging friends. “I’ve been coming here since I was 18.” The Oklahoma-raised rocker has a passion for seriously joking. Just moments before, he asked me if I was happy that HiLo wasn’t a Braum’s to which he quipped: “What, don’t you like ice cream?” Dale’s played the tiny room many times over with Red City Radio. Even the bartender on duty, Ian, is a fan. He pointed to where he broke his foot at a RCR show — he says the injury hasn’t
totally healed yet. The band’s known for rowdy punk shows that not only flex pop-infused harmonies but also become infectious enough to get Blue Note patrons to put down their pool cues and party. Guitarist Ryan Donovan, drummer Dallas Tidwell and bassist Jonathan Knight round out the quartet’s current lineup. Dale’s been running around the world with the band for more than a decade. He says he joined Red City Radio as a teenager right around the time he dropped out of Rose State College and answered a “guitar player wanted”
web ad. Born on a Wichita Falls, Texas Air Force base, Dale spent his youth hopping between the U.S., Spain and London before his family settled down in Edmond.
WHAT’S A SKYTIGER? Today, he’s approaching Red City Radio’s latest effort with a renewed passion. It’s called “SkyTigers,” a fivesong EP that’s big on righteous guitar hooks and might be more of a state of SEE EP, 11L

from writing and then a close friend’s death sent him into a funk. Self-doubt soured his mood. “It ended relationships. It ended my positive mentality,” Dale said. “But every end is a beginning though. Every lowdown, dirty thing that happens to you only exists because the opposite is out there in the universe. “You have low times and you have great times. As long as you keep your gratitude higher than your expectations, life’s a little easier.”

I think we’re doing OKC a disservice by not playing all-ages shows,” Dale said. “I grew up at the Green Door. I grew up seeing Minutes Too Far play in churches. ... I was able to see that stuff because it wasn’t always 21 and up. “Stop catering to the drunks. ... We’re not allowing kids to come to our parties. Why are we so surprised that there’s not a lot of young people wanting to be a part of rock and roll? We’re not sending out the invitation.”

EP CONTINUED FROM 10L mind than anything else. To give you an idea what a SkyTiger is, let’s start with what isn’t: Having your label dissolve. That happened shortly after the band’s 2015 self-titled LP tried picking up steam while Staple Records folded. Dale knows plenty of bands who would’ve broke up in that situation. But Red City Radio kept going. “We didn’t sit around and wait for something to come to us,” Dale said. “We went out there and pushed the f--on. The Woody Guthrie way.
LOOKATOKC.COM
“Being from Oklahoma, nobody’s coming out here to help you. Nobody’s coming here to find the hot, new talent. That’s just not real, man. Now, you don’t have to go anywhere to do it, but you have to commit yourself 100 percent.” That’s exactly what being a SkyTiger’s all about. “We tried to elevate our band, our brand and the way that we think about music,” Dale said. “Even the way that we communicate with each other. That’s actually what a SkyTiger is. It’s the next level of consciousness, my man.” That wasn’t a simple path. After a pretty rigorous touring schedule following the label debacle, Dale took a break
When Mike Kennerty’s not playing guitar for the All-American Rejects or reviewing breakfast cereals on Instagram — which is a very entertaining follow — he’s producing and recording music out of an Edmond-based studio. Dale clicked with Kennerty on a 2017 solo effort and that opened the floodgates for a Red City Radio followup. “SkyTigers” — released last month via Red Scare Industries — takes the band in a more dramatic direction. The quartet still approaches its craft with a go-for-broke energy that I could only imagine attaining after downing a fridge full of Red Bulls. There’s also more quiet moments and those are balanced with some acrobatic guitar squeals that’d be a fit for an arena crowd. “SkyTigers” spans only 21 minutes, but every one of those five songs has an album’s worth of enthusiasm. “I realized I control my own destiny and my own universe,” Dale said. “I had stopped thinking that way. That’s where the idea for ‘SkyTigers’ came from.” I could be wrong, but I’ll take a stab at a few more things Dale might consider a SkyTiger move: Staying positive, getting a DEVO tattoo like the one on Dale’s arm, listening to Horse Thief, hitting the Celebration Station batting cages with Taking Back Sunday’s drummer, attending OKC’s Rock and Roll Camp for Girls or performing at an all-ages venue. “At this point and time in our career,
Whether you knew it or not, you were totally invited to the band’s April 13 visit to the Tower Theatre. Dale went to the trouble of keeping the salty language to a minimum. The night was also special because he was eager to catch the defunct, like-minded Oklahoma band Minutes Too Far reunite for an evening. Back in the early aughts, Dale played his very first concert opening for MTF inside of an Edmond church. At the gig, his bandmate threw a drumstick into the crowd and it plopped onto the carpet because nobody caught it. Dale’s music and showmanship has come a long way from that evening, and he’s happy to route Red City Radio’s latest tour through his hometown. “North side Oklahoma City’s where our dreams come true and die / Ain’t the prettiest place on earth / There’s everywhere to run but no place to hide” Dale and Co. growl on the new EP opener “If You Want Blood (Be My Guest)” before reaffirming change is within anyone’s reach. Oklahoma is home, but these punks are here to say it’s far from perfect. “I love Oklahoma City. I think it’s time to love ourselves,” Dale said. “It seems like there’s people with a lot of money in this town that wanna build a lot of cool stuff, but we all know people with a lot of money ain’t cool. “If you wanna be cool, support art.” I think that’s what a SkyTiger would do.

ven tributes to the Purple One still draw a crowd. Prince’s celebrated ’80s backing band The Revolution capped off the ninth rendition of Metro Music Fest and a dramatic week for the ACM@UCO-led festival. The Brictown-based music college had to switch up the schedule after another headliner, Mavis Staples, canceled her appearance due to a family emergency. Then, a day before the April 6 festival, the main stage swapped locations in order to dodge unseasonably cold weather. But all the tribulation melted away as The Revolution wrapped the festivities in style at The Criterion, 500 E Sheridan Ave. The original lineup — drummer Bobby Z, keyboardist Matt Fink, bassist Brown Mark, keyboardist Lisa Coleman and guitarist Wendy Melvoin — still look the part and delivered a sparkling energy to those “Purple Rain” era Prince hits. It’s uncanny how much they made the crowd of a couple thousand wanna dance. Even Flaming Lips frontman Wayne Coyne was boogieing down in the venue’s balcony. Was it the same without Prince? No, but singer Stokely Williams joined for a handful of songs and electrified the crowd of a couple thousand with self-assured swagger. I didn’t get a chance to explore the rest of the festival. More than a dozen Bricktown venues participated in the celebration and at least one stage was partying like it was 1999.

Ingrid’s hopes to stick around BY DAVID DISHMAN For LOOKatOKC
Ingrid’s Kitchen owner Lee Burrus is selling his business, but he hopes to ensure it will stay open. The popular restaurant, which has two locations, has been around for 40 years. Burrus purchased the business 17 years ago, but is nearing the end of his time as owner. “I’m selling because I’m retiring,” Burrus said. “I’ve been working for a long time, and I’m just ready. It’s a tough decision, but sometimes you’ve got to do what you’ve got to do.” Those interested in buying the Ingrid’s locations should contact RE/MAX Platinum real estate agent Jason Mann at 481-1471. Burrus is looking to sell to someone willing to keep the business going, much like he did. Before purchasing Ingrid’s, Burrus owned a catering business. “When my catering business was operating, I would come in (to Ingrid’s Kitchen) to get cakes,” Burrus said. “One day I was looking through the Sunday papers and saw Ingrid’s was selling, and I broke my neck to get to the phone, and three days later I was signing the lease.” The business expanded to a second location four years ago. The original store is at 3701 N Youngs Blvd., and the expansion shop can be found at 6501 N May Ave. Ingrid’s Kitchen was visited by celebrity chef Guy Fieri for the TV show “Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives” in 2009 and appeared on the show in 2010. Burrus said the experience is something he’ll never forget. While it is for sale, Burrus will continue to work at Ingrid’s Kitchen until he finds someone to continue the business. Selling it to someone with plans to close is not an option he wishes to take. “I’d have too many people mad at me,” Burrus said.

April 19 - May 2, 2018
Coming up on three years in July, Patrono has evolved from one of downtown’s hidden dining gems to one of its top destinations. Since Gary and Melinda Billings purchased the restaurant last year, their general manager Robert Painter has outfitted Patrono with a well-trained staff in the dining room and kitchen, and added lunch service to give locals more reason to wander downtown’s west side. Patrono, 305 N Walker Ave., was founded in the summer of 2015 by chef Robert DeCoste, who had moved to Oklahoma City with his wife, Amanda Yaun, a pediatric neurosurgeon from Washington, D.C. When Yaun got an opportunity to move to New York, where her highly specialized skills would be used to help almost five times as many young patients, DeCoste put the restaurant up for sale. Painter was waiting tables at Patrono, enjoying well-deserved respite from running restaurants like Iguana Mexican Grill, Tommy’s Italian-American Grill, and The Sushi Bar. Not long after DeCoste put the restaurant on the market, Painter got a dinner invitation from the Billings, who were looking to enter the restaurant business and wanted Painter to be their general manager. Catch was, they wanted to open in Yukon. Painter countered with the news about the availability of Patrono. The Billings were interested, but Painter still needed to make another call. Chef Jonathan Krell was helping install a Bricktown Brewery in El Paso, Texas, when he saw Robert Painter’s name pop up on his cellphone. “I was a little surprised at first,” Krell explained. “I love Robert, and we’ve been friends a long time, but it’s not like we call each other all the time.” Painter told Krell about the pending deal but admitted, “I’m not going to do this without you.” The Philadelphia-born chef agreed, and spent his early time getting to know DeCoste’s original menu. He started doing his own menus, while maintaining house originals like the Orecchiete Calabrese, last fall. On Monday, Krell released his first original spring menu. Krell, who also ran the kitchen at Park House during its time in the Myriad Botanical Gardens and Nonna’s Ristorante, is known for artistic flavor-first plates. While some chefs present plates channeling a painter’s approach, Krell’s offerings are more like a sculptor’s. Because he studied and successfully held a career as a sound engineer in the live music world, it’s no surprise his food has amplitude. The grilled pork porterhouse is a tour de force of flavor, juicy and tender and with all the heft that will satisfy the hardiest appetites. Same goes for the Rib-eye Alla Griglia, Partrono’s version of steak frites. Krell’s version includes a clever potato stack rather than fries, onion jam and Swiss chard. New for spring is the Gnocchi & Grilled Artichokes, which features Krell’s distinctive ricotta-based version of gnocchi. “Potatoes are really unpredictable,” he explained. “Some have too much starch, some too much water. I import this really

PATRONO, CONTINUED FROM PAGE 15 great ricotta from Italy, never have to worry about the quality, plus I think it makes a lighter gnocchi.” Light indeed, the handmade pasta has a nice toothsome bite to balance the rich, herbed ricotta sauce they bathe in with grilled asparagus halves, and toasted breadcrumbs. Other entrees include an 8-ounce sirloin, Chicken Al Mattone and rotating seafood and vegan options. There’s plenty of pasta options to choose from, but noodle enthusiasts should direct attention toward the ultra-decadent carbonara. Topped with an egg yolk to be mixed in while the pasta is still hot, the bacon is presented in thick, meaty cubes with a pleasing contingency of fresh green peas and Parmigiano-Reggiano. Starting a meal at Patrono is fraught with peril. The Crabcake with red pepper pomodoro and arugula is a monster. Krell’s “killer no filler” version of the classic has no bread binding but instead relies on chopped crab to hold together this flavor fortress sealed in semolina. New for spring is a lemon preserve risotto served with asparagus salad and marinated shrimp. Lush and crisp textures crisscross with aplomb, prefacing Krell’s harmonious mix of creamy decadence and citrus notes. But how do you skip the Suppli al Telefono? You don’t. Because when someone goes to the trouble of batter-frying risotto with a mozzarella center, you order it. And then there’s the white anchovies and grilled octopus to consider. Did I mention the carpaccio and swordfish crudo? Krell spent a crucial period early in his cooking career training at Morimoto in PhiladelphiaNeedless to say, you can be stuffed like a Christmas goose if you’re not careful before salad arrives. Solution? Make it a party of six, plan to dine for a couple of hours and take it slow over a couple bottles of wine. And save room for dessert. (I recommend the Panna Cotta, served with berry medley, house-made honeycomb and dolce.) Also keep in mind, the audio engineer in the kitchens knows a little something about volume. “We get a lot of people that say, ‘Thank you for serving proper portion sizes so we can enjoy several courses,’ ” Painter said. Patrono introduced lunch service in November, and just updated it for spring. Krell said he wanted to keep it simple with a focus on getting guests fed quickly and efficiently. His menu includes sandwiches, salads, soup, and some slimmed-down pasta options. Never one to hide behind false modesty, Krell promises the Duck Confit Grilled Cheese is the best you’ll ever have and comes with a guaranteed nap. Lunch service starts at 10:30 a.m. and runs until 2 p.m. The bar, which specializes in Italian wines, will be open during lunch. Dinner service runs from 5 to 10 p.m. Tuesday through Thursday, closing at 11 p.m. Saturdays and 9 p.m. on Sundays. Service does fluctuate on evenings the Thunder plays or when the Civic Center is presenting a show. The restaurant is closed Mondays.

Chauffeur and ‘torchbearer’ Limo driver sees himself as loyal guide, advocate for the city BY STEVE LACKMEYER For LOOKatOKC
J
ames Dozier is a pastor who discovered that one job alone wasn’t going to pay all the bills when he sought out a friend at a limousine company about getting a job as a driver. “My son started college, and for that you need extra money,” Dozier said. “And that’s why I started. A friend told me I would driving because I love to drive.” Six years later, Dozier has no regrets and is loving his job at Kings Limo. “As a chauffeur, we are torchbearers for Oklahoma City,” Dozier said. “It’s very important we know what is going on in the city. We have conventioneers who want to know what can they do, where can they go. And we have people coming in looking for a place for conventions. They want to know what’s good and what’s bad, so I’m always trying to share the best” for their benefit and to put the city in the best light. He loves to share stories about the city, what it was and how its downtown areas are experiencing a rebirth. No day is the same. “Every day is a different day,” Dozier said. “I get a lot of interaction with different people. You would be surprised at all the people who are here. I didn’t know how much is going on in Oklahoma City until I started working this job. You have all the people in the oil and gas industry, the celebrities, athletes, and it’s just been awesome.” Dozier can provide a long list of the big names who have occupied the back seat of his limo, but one rises to the top. “One of my favorites was Craig Sager, who passed

away recently,” Dozier said. “He was an awesome guy. We talked all the time, we got to be friends. It broke my heart when he passed away. He was a private man, very personal. He always stayed at the Colcord, and when I would pick him up, he always brought me an apple.” During their last visit, Sager (a sports reporter for CNN and TNT) was going through chemotherapy. “I told him I was praying for him,” Dozier said. “He was believing he would get better.” Much of Dozier’s job involves listening. When it comes to dining choices, he has mastered a knowledge of the city’s vast array of locally owned restaurants. “I’ve had a couple of people who wanted a cheese sandwich and I took them to the Plaza District to the Mule,” Dozier said. “Some want a good hamburger, so I take them to The Garage or S&B’s. If they want a

But he also acknowledges the number of streets torn up for the new streetcar make for some interesting conversations. “Right now the city is torn up,” Dozier said. “My joke is ‘Every day is going to be an adventure because I don’t know which street is going to be torn up; are we on the right side or the left side?’ ”

HANK’S CONTINUED FROM 19 Ky Nguyen is the world-traveler, and current owner of the shop at 2435 N Classen Ave. He has been to France, Portugal, the Dominican Republic and Mexico, to name a few, and plans to visit Israel this summer to learn about Jesus, he said. Dieu Thy Nguyen is the elder of Ky Nguyen’s two sons, and is a chemical engineering student at the University of Oklahoma. He expects to graduate in May, and is jobhunting for positions in his field when he isn’t studying or helping his dad at the shop, where he’s more commonly known as “Big Thy.” Anh Thy Nguyen is the aspiring pharmacist and biochemistry student at the University of Oklahoma. He’s the younger brother of Dieu Thy Nguyen, and is more commonly referred to as “Little Thy.” The trio moved to the United States from Bien Hoa,

Vietnam, in 2008 when Anh Thy Nguyen and Dieu Thy Nguyen’s grandfather, Ky Nguyen’s father-in-law, sponsored their family to join him in Oklahoma. Their grandfather fought alongside the U.S. in the Vietnam War, and spent nine years as a prisoner of war. The boys were still in school when they moved, but Ky Nguyen went to work doing what he’d done for decades in Vietnam — cut hair. “In high school, I go to school half day in Vietnam, and half day I learn to haircut,” Ky Nguyen said. “My uncle would take me and I’d cut hair from that time until now.” While getting his cosmetology license in Oklahoma, a tip from his instructor led him to Hank’s Barber Shop. A man name Vilat Khamphan owned the shop, having purchased it from the original Hank in 1995. Khamphan is originally from Cambodia, and knew Ky Nguyen’s cosmetology licensing instructor. After the referral, Khamphan hired Ky Nguyen in 2008, and he worked for Khamphan until 2013, when Ky Nguyen purchased the shop. Khamphan still works in the shop, manning the fourth barber chair alongside the Nguyen family.
LANGUAGE BARRIER Language was a huge barrier for the barbers Nguyen when they moved from Vietnam a decade ago, and continues to be a challenge today. Dieu Thy Nguyen and Anh Thy Nguyen were in high school and middle school, respectively, when they moved. “It was a shock at first because I didn’t know any English,” Anh Thy Nguyen said. “Culture wise, it was like coming to a different planet, I would get mocked (at school) and I didn’t even understand it.” His father struggled at work with the language barrier. “The first time I came here, I knew how to cut, but I didn’t know how short or long,” Ky Nguyen said. “I have tried to learn every day, and some American guys are very nice and when I speak the wrong one (word) they teach me how to say it right.” But the three have improved since moving, and Dieu Thy Nguyen even views the struggle as a positive in SEE HANK’S, 21

HANK’S CONTINUED FROM 20L his life, and one he will carry forward into a chemical engineering career in the near future. “I had a fear of talking to people, but not anymore,” Dieu Thy Nguyen said. “I learned you have to talk to get better, and learn from your mistakes. I’ve gained that skill and I think that will help in chemical engineering because I can talk to people and make them understand it.”
WORK AND SCHOOL Ky Nguyen has more than 40 years of experience cutting hair in two countries. While his sons showed interest in attending college to study other subjects, he encouraged the pair to pursue a cosmetology license as a fallback option.

“My dad said, ‘You can maybe later help yourself, or help me,’ ” Dieu Thy Nguyen said. “It doesn’t hurt to learn about those skills because you don’t know your future. So that’s how I started to be a barber.” Dieu Thy Nguyen, who is three years older than his brother, has worked at Hank’s for several years. Anh Thy Nguyen has worked at the shop for a year-and-a-half. The work benefits both sons while in school. “He’ll (Dieu Thy Nguyen) be graduating in May and I’ll be graduating in December,” Anh Thy Nguyen said. “So this is a part-time job. You know, help my dad and help build up the shop, and then at the same time earn some money because you know how college is.” Anh Thy Nguyen hopes to attend pharmacy school after graduation. His father’s guidance, while sometimes strict, has helped him stay out of trouble and aim for success. “He’s not an easy boss,” Anh Thy Nguyen said. “Not as a boss in general, but as a dad as well. “If it wasn’t for him I’d be out there doing drugs or something like that,” Anh Thy Nguyen said. “I’ll be
honest, that’s how it is. I went to a high school where kids were like, ‘Do you want some of this or that?’ I could pretty easily have fallen for that.” Dieu Thy Nguyen is more earnestly job hunting with his graduation quickly approaching. He’s grateful for the opportunity to finish a college degree. He said he’s received encouragement along the way from his family, his dad specifically, to pursue his education. “Having the cosmetology degree was for if I couldn’t finish my degree, but here I am, I’m almost finished,” Dieu Thy Nguyen said. “I love chemistry, and I’m good at math too. That’s why I decided to try chemical engineering, and it’s working out. I don’t have to be really good at English to solve all the problems, so here I come!” Potentially losing two barbers in the coming months doesn’t seem to bother Ky Nguyen. In fact, quite the opposite is true. “I feel lucky,” Ky Nguyen said. “Because I can’t believe I’m an owner. When I came here, I had empty hands. I have good work and good health, and I am lucky.”
