Chu was a movie-obsessed first-generation Chinese American, helping at his parents' Chinese restaurant in Silicon Valley and forever facing the cultural identity crisis endemic to children of immigrants. Growing up on the cutting edge of 21st-century technology gave Chu the tools he needed to make his mark at USC film school, and to be discovered by Steven Spielberg, but he soon found himself struggling to understand who he was. In this book, for the first time, Chu dives deep into his life and work, telling the universal story of questioning what it means when your dreams collide with your circumstances, and showing how it's possible to succeed even when the world changes beyond all recognition. With striking candor and unrivalled insights, Chu offers a firsthand account of the collision of Silicon Valley and Hollywood-what it's been like to watch his old world shatter and reshape his new one. Ultimately, Viewfinder is about reckoning with your own story, becoming your most creative self, and finding a path all your own"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Chu, Jon M. $q (Jon Murray), $d 1979- 650 0 $a Asian American motion picture producers and directors $v Biography. 650 0 $a Chinese Americans $v Biography. 655 7 $a Informational works. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a McCarter, Jeremy, $d 1976- $e author. $1 https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PCjFYQt3Q9pDdwJBkmRdDWP 941 $a 1 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20240725010138.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=39F5B0E44A4B11EFB3E903CE3AECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b JIUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
