  • Kim Lee Winslow

    AMBASSADOR

    Seoul-born KIM LEE WINSLOW  emigrated out of South Korea's authoritarian dictatorship to the secular shores of Los Angeles with her family as part of the 1.5 generation.  Growing up in a strict, traditional and evangelical family, she was destined to spill secrets and tell stories which led to writing her first play in French while studying abroad in Paris.  She later moved to New York where her play ANCESTORS was awarded the Van Lier Playwriting Fellowship, a Jerome Foundation Grant, and was later published by Yale University Press.  Her play WORTH was commissioned from the Mark Taper Forum before being produced by Genesius Theater Group off-Broadway.  After finishing her Master of Fine Arts degree at Yale University, Kim sold her original drama series LOYAL to Sony Pictures Television.  Drawing upon her love of language, Kim is also a professor of Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages to adult learners at Pasadena City College.
