[GeronL]

I like Korean TV and stuff.

Mi-Ai sounds like a perfectly reasonable name to me. Of course tacking an English name on the end can be a bit weird. Sometimes you see Korean (and other Asian) actors/actresses taking English FIRST names (sometimes simply transliterations) but last names not so much

Agreed, GeronL... except that her husband is American. That's where her last name comes from.

Dave Parrish is a retired investigative reporter who wrote this Pulitzer Prize winning story for the Orange County Register:

Back in 1995, the Orange County Register was still an explicitly libertarian newspaper. I used to work for a smaller newspaper in that same newspaper chain. Since her husband's Pulitzer came as an Orange County Register reporter and was part of an expose of improper activities at a fertility clinic. I'm guessing that may mean Mi-Ai Parrish is not exactly a screaming radical leftist, but I have no idea.
