About the Author
George Huang is a Taiwanese-American filmmaker. He wrote and directed his debut film, Swimming with Sharks, which starred Kevin Spacey and Frank Whaley. Released in 1994, the film was a biting satire of Hollywood politics from the point-of-view of a studio underling. Although not a major box-office smash, the movie received huge critical acclaim. Michael Lesslie adapted The Constant Prince for the stage which completed an acclaimed international tour before transferring to both London's Arcola Studio and the Oxford Playhouse in 2005.
