Kevin Kwan Biography
Kevin Kwan is the author of "Crazy Rich Asians," the international bestselling novel that has been translated into more than 30 languages. Its sequel, "China Rich Girlfriend," was released in 2015, and "Rich People Problems," the final book in the trilogy, followed in 2017. For several weeks in 2018, the "Crazy Rich Asians" trilogy commanded the top three positions of the New York Times bestseller list - an almost unprecedented single-author trifecta, and the film adaptation of "Crazy Rich Asians" became Hollywood's highest grossing romantic comedy in over a decade. In 2018, Kwan was named by Time Magazine as one of the 100 Most Influential People in the World.

Kevin Kwan Speaking Topics
Kevin Kwan’s debut novel, Crazy Rich Asians, became something of a cultural phenomenon, topping bestseller lists worldwide, spawning two bestselling sequels, and inspiring a #1 movie. Also, the first romantic comedy from a major Hollywood studio to feature a lead actor and actress of Asian descent, the release of this film is now considered a watershed moment for many Asians and Asian Americans.
In this conversation, Kwan discusses the cultural impact of his novels and describes how the climate in many industries, particularly entertainment, is already changing. Discussing the wide spectrum and multiple facets of Asians around the world, Kwan also explores the unimaginable wealth disparity rarely discussed.
Now part of a larger conversation, Kwan advocates the need for proper representation in society, as he says, "The more we demystify a culture and people, the more we relate to each other."
A graduate of Parsons School of Design and a creative consultant whose clients included Interview magazine, the New York Times, the Museum of Modern Art, Rockwell Group, Elizabeth Taylor Jewelry, Oprah Winfrey, and TED.com, not to mention the author of the wildly successful Crazy Rich Asians, Kevin Kwan is no stranger to commercial-creative projects. But how does he balance personal fulfillment with financial gains?
In this discussion, Kwan offers his views on fostering creativity, especially among youth and in impoverished communities, where the emphasis is generally on financial success, while exploring ways in which creative individuals can express themselves and find support in a competitive industry.
