Diana Son was born in Philadelphia, though she attributes most of her formative memories to Dover, Delaware, where her family moved when she was a child. A self-described “latchkey kid,” she talks about how she had been enamored with writing and storytelling from a young age through watching popular talk shows after school. This passion for creating and sharing narratives took a pivotal turn into the theatrical world when she saw a production of Hamlet in New York City with her high school class.
Despite her storied and successful career in TV, as a writer/producer/showrunner and playwriting, she believes that she is still growing, learning, and “evolving” as an artist, telling us that there’s still so much more she wishes to accomplish; in her own words, “I’m still hungry.”
