Elaine's kindergarten teacher warned her parents that speaking Korean in the home was "retarding" her. A Stanford PhD, Canadian Film Centre residency, and many screenplay competition accolades later, Elaine writes offbeat comedies and dramas with heart and grit. And if you use terms like the "r-word" to hurt people, she'll probably fight ya.
