Future Asian & Pacific History Month: Aziz Ansari Is a Witty Jack of All Trades
Fuse is celebrating Asian/Pacific American Heritage Month by looking at a variety of rising forces who are creating Future Asian and Pacific History before our eyes. Today we are honoring Aziz Ansari, who is putting his own twist on the classic New York City humor that Woody Allen perfected in the '70s/'80s—but he's doing it the right way.
Prior to his current success with Master of None (whose second season is incredible), Ansari first got on Hollywood's radar with stand-up comedy tours and playing the sarcastic as hell Tom Haverford in NBC's Parks and Recreation from 2009-2015. The actor later went on to star in Bob's Burgers, Get Him to the Greek, Ice Age: Continental Drift and This Is the End. Yet it was his collaboration with Netflix for Master of None that Ansari truly began to shine as not only a star on screen, but also as a director, writer and executive producer.
