Storyteller: The Screenwriter

from Life After JET Hosted by After JET

My guest this episode is a maelstrom of talent, ideas and energy - one episode on this teeny tiny podcast is not enough to cover all the stories from one life well led. And storytelling is the work of Eirene Tran Donohue. As a screenwriter, she has worked in Hollywood for over a decade, with her most successful movie to date being Netflix's A Tourist Guide to Love. We have a chat about the industry, creativity, Asian representation and the ongoing writers' strike.
