Director and writer Alan Yang is probably best known for co-creatoring the hit Netflix series “Master of None” and his impressive comedy writing credits on shows like Parks and Recreation. But his newest endeavor, Tigertail – a film he wrote and directed that’s loosely based on his family’s immigrant experience – breaks from comedy. Alan joins us to talk about “Tigertail,” about his childhood growing up in Southern California, and how finding the Harvard Lampoon changed his life.
