David Henry Hwang was born in Los Angeles, California. He is an American playwright, librettist and screenwriter. He received a Bachelor's degree in English from Stanford University and attended the Yale School of Drama, taking literature classes. His first play, the Obie Award-winning FOB, depicts the contrasts and conflicts between established Asian Americans and "Fresh Off the Boat" newcomer immigrants. His next play Rich Relations, was his first full-length to feature non-Asian characters. The success of M. Butterfly prompted Hwang's interests in many other different directions, including work for opera, film, and the musical theatre. Hwang became a frequent collaborator as a librettist with the world-renowned composer Philip Glass. Hwang also wrote a new short play, The Great Helmsman for their night of plays Ten.
