Happy 71st Birthday, Wayne Wang! Born today in 1949 as Wáng Yǐng, this Hong Kong-American screenwriter, producer and director is considered a pioneer of Asian-American cinema.
He was one of the first Chinese-American filmmakers to gain a major foothold in Hollywood. His films, often independently produced, deal with issues of contemporary Asian-American culture and domestic life.
Wayne has been active from 1975–present.
