Vault Absorbed (2026-09-14)
- Vault sweep: no work/organization record other than the TAH Who’s Who profile itself cites Grace Fong — this page is currently the vault’s sole holding on her (no duplicate entry, unlike fellow bassist-profile case Amanda Wu).
- Peer TAH musicians’ profiles already in the vault (e.g. [[works/taiwaneseamericanhistory-org/311-chi-chen-wu-pianist-201510|TAH #311 Chi-chen Wu, pianist]], [[works/taiwaneseamericanhistory-org/695-grace-chung-e9-8d-be-e6-9b-89-e9-9d-92-201511|TAH #695 Grace Chung 鍾美青, pianist]]) document the same TAH practice of recording Taiwanese-American concert musicians; no biographical link asserted between them.
- No further biography invented; verification still pending against the cited TAH page.
