Kal Penn Will Be Honored by Asian American Arts Alliance
I don’t know about you, but I’ve already become a fan of #6/9, aka Kal Penn. Apparently, there are a lot of other people who think he’s great too. He’s being honored by the Asian American Arts Alliance on October 16. Congratulations, Kal!!
Here’s an excerpt from the press release:
“I’m honored to be recognized by the Alliance at their 25th anniversary event,” says honoree Kal Penn. “Opportunities for artists are rare in any walk of life, so it’s particularly encouraging to see the growth of the organization over the years, and their service to the community. Thank you for all of the support and for creating even more opportunities in the arts.” Kal Penn is the most visible Asian American actor in Hollywood today with roles in The Namesake, Superman Returns, and the upcoming sequel to Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle. The Alliance is also honoring: Eric Wong, Chief Marketing Officer of Bad Boy Entertainment and Senior Vice President of Marketing for Atlantic Records, who has promoted top artists such as P. Diddy, Bon Jovi, and Mariah Carey; and Willa Kim, a world renowned costume designer for ballet, theatre, opera and television who has won numerous honors including Emmy, Tony, and Obie awards.
