    Korean American Creations and Discontents: Korean American Cultural Productions, Los Angeles, and Post-1992 A Dissertation SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Michelle Chang IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Josephine Lee, Co-Advisor Elliott Powell, Co-Advisor December 2020 © Michelle Chang 2020 i Acknowledgements As I write the last section of my dissertation, I find myself at a loss for words. 55,000+ words later and my writing fails me. While the dissertation itself is an overwhelming feat, this acknowledgements section feels equally heavy. Expressing my gratitude and thanks for every person who has made this possiBle feels quite impossiBle. And as someone who once detested both school and writing, there’s a lot of people I am thankful for. It is a fact that I could not completed a PhD, let alone a dissertation, on my own. Graduate school wears you down, and especially one framed By the 2016 presidential election and 2020 uprisings, rise of white supremacy, and a gloBal pandemic, graduate school is really hard and writing is the last thing you want to do. While I’ve spent days going through mental lists of people and groups who’ve helped me, this is not a complete list and my sincere apologies to anyone I’ve forgotten. First and foremost, this dissertation would not be where it is today without the guidance and support of my advisors Jo Lee and Elliott Powell. The hours of advice and words of wisdom I received from you both not only shaped my project and affirmed its direction, but they also reminded me of the realistic expectations we should have for ourselves.

  • CAST BIOGRAPHIES Season 2 RICKY WHITTLE
    CAST BIOGRAPHIES Season 2 RICKY WHITTLE (SHADOW MOON) Ricky Whittle was born in Oldham, near Manchester in the north of England. Growing up, Whittle excelled in various sports representing his country at youth level in football, rugby, American football and athletics. After being scouted by both Arsenal and Celtic Football Clubs, injuries forced him to pursue a law degree at Southampton University. It was here he began modeling, becoming the face of a Reebok campaign in 2000. Whittle left university to pursue an acting career and soon joined several action-packed seasons as bad boy Ryan Naysmith in Sky One’s “Dream Team.” Following that, Whittle quickly joined the U.K.’s hugely popular long-running drama, “Hollyoaks,” in which he played rookie cop Calvin Valentine to acclaim across 400+ episodes. In 2010, Whittle made the decision to relocate to California and, within months of settling in, booked the role of Captain George East in the romantic-comedy feature Austenland for Sony Pictures, which was produced by Twilight creator Stephanie Meyer. Additionally, he was soon cast in a major recurring role in VH1’s popular series, “Single Ladies.” Another major recurring role followed on The CW’s popular post-apocalyptic sci-fi series “The 100.” Whittle’s character, Lincoln, immediately became a fan-favorite character, so he was upped to a series regular. Simultaneously, Whittle also had a recurring arc as Daniel Zamora in ABC’s “Mistresses.” In 2016, after a vigorous casting process, Whittle won the coveted role of Shadow Moon in Starz’s “American Gods.” In 2017, Whittle was seen opposite Sanaa Lathan in the Netflix feature film Nappily Ever After, which is based on the novel of the same name by Trisha R.

    “This chameleon of an event not only retains its eclectic nature, it builds upon it as needed. In this city titles in some major festivals can be too predictable. This is not the case in this refreshing mélange.” Howard Feinstein, Filmmaker Magazine THEN AND NOW: IN 1975 ASIAN CINEVISION WAS FOUNDED AS CCTV (CHINESE CABLE TELEVISION) PRODUCING A WEEKLY 30 MINUTE COMMUNITY AFFAIRS TV SHOW AIRING ON THE WARNER AMEX CABLE NETWORK. THE FIRST ASIAN AMERICAN INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL SCREENED JUST 42 FILMS IN 1978. TODAY 40 YEARS LATER AAIFF SCREENS CLOSE TO 100 TITLES FROM NEARLY 30 COUNTRIES OVER TEN DAYS IN JULY. PHOTOS COURTESY OF (L) CORKY LEE AND (R) LIA CHANG. THE ANNUAL ASIAN AMERICAN INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL (AAIFF) is New York’s leading showcase for the Asian American and Asian independent cinema. Presented by Asian CineVision (ACV), the AAIFF is the first and longest-running festival in the U.S. to showcase the moving image work by artists of Asian descent and about the Asian American experience. AAIFF premiered in the seminal summer of 1978 at the Henry Street Settlement in New York City. Ed Koch had been elected mayor, the first cellular mobile phone is introduced, serial killer David Berkowitz, “Son of Sam,” is convicted of murder, GREASE, SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER, and CLOSE ENCOUNTERS were the blockbusters of their day. Forty years later, the AAIFF has grown to include films and video from more than 30 coun- tries, answering a growing need for social understanding, cultural diversity in American life, and independent cinema. AAIFF has played a vital role in discovering and nurturing such acclaimed talent as Oscar Award winners Ang Lee, Jessica Yu, Steven Okazaki, Ruby Yang and Chris Tashima; Os- car Award nominees Christine Choy and Rene Tajima-Pena, Frieda Lee Mock, Arthur Dong, Zhang Yimou; and mainstream entertainment directors Wayne Wang, Mira Nair, and Justin Lin.
