Early Facebook Employees Launch Foundation To Promote Asian American Artists
After helping Facebook become one of the most popular destinations on the Internet, three of the social network's early employees now have a more benevolent mission in mind. Phil Fung, Julia Lam, and Franklyn Chien launched the A3 Foundation (Asian American Artists), which is focused on promoting and supporting the talents of Asian Americans in television, film, and online digital media. This week, the A3 Foundation partnered with the Sundance Institute to give their vision a new stage.
