Steven J. Kung uses comedy to illuminate things oft unseen which include POC, LGBTQ folx, and his car keys. While at first glance he reminds you of that over-achieving Asian classmate (which self-admittedly, he was), he's also a salsa merengue instructor and very queer. With his encyclopedic knowledge of Dear White People, Steven was promoted to staff writer and he is developing a semi-autobiographical comedy pilot with Lionsgate. As a director, his feature about unapologetically hot Asians, A Leading Man, won multiple awards on the festival circuit. Other credits include the Disney ABC Directing Program and directing Fresh Off The Boat. In another life, Steven worked at the Department of Justice and the Kennedy Center. Now he co-chairs the WGA Asian American Town Hall and serves as co-chair emeritus of the DGA Asian American Committee.Follow him at https://www.facebook.com/aleadingmanCredits Include...Dear White People starring Wendie Malick, Nia Long, and Giancarlo EspositoA Leading Man starring Lilan BowdenCamp Abercorn starring Brad LelandThe Man Who Shook the Hand of Vicente Fernandez starring Barry CorbinPlease like and subscribe, it helps us out a lot.Music is Hungaria by Latché Swing.Episode still image is by Ricardo Tomasz on Greater & Grander.Follow Us on Social Media!Greater & Grander on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/GreaterGrander  Greater & Grander on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/GreaterGrander Greater & Grander on Twitter - https://twitter.com/GreaterGrander  Greater & Grander on Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/GreaterGrander    Register and Get a Free List of Special Info on Jobs in Hollywood - http://greaterandgrander.com/special-job-openings-giveaways  Check out past episodes and bonus content on the Greater & Grander website - http://greaterandgrander.com/tag/producers-lounge-podcast Support the show
