The first Asian American head of a major Hollywood studio takes the helm today at Warner Bros.
Kevin Tsujihara is a Hollywood story. The third generation Japanese American used to make deliveries for his parents egg distribution business in Petaluma, CA.
“The one thing I kind of regret and am sad about is that I couldn’t share this with my dad,” Tsujihara said during an emotional moment in his office on the studio lot. “He would be shocked. I think my dad would think it’s not even in the realm of possibility. Not because he didn’t think I was great. But I don’t think he thought these opportunities would exist for us.”
