Kal Penn tackles a new role: White House liaison
The
star of 'House' and 'Harold & Kumar' agrees to serve as associate
director of the White House Office of Public Liaison.

When the script writers elect to kill off a popular television series
character with a suicide instead of a car crash, you know that somebody
needs to make an exit that's fast -- and within budget.
That's exactly what
Kal Penn, a member of the ensemble
cast that has helped make "House" such a hit for Fox, needed this week
when he announced he is putting aside acting, at least for now, to
become an associate director of the White House Office of Public
Liaison. His job there, he said on a conference call with reporters,
will focus on outreach to young people, arts professionals and the
Asian American community. In fact, the 31-year-old Indian-American
heartthrob is thought to be the first of a number of Hollywood figures
who will be added to the office, as the administration moves to cement
President Obama's ties to the entertainment industry.
Hollywood played such a major role in Obama's election that many in
town have been wondering just how he planned to use the entertainment
industry. It now seems clear that Obama intends to sell his programs to
the country in a kind of permanent campaign, with town hall meetings
and speeches on factory floors. And Hollywood talent will be playing a
part.
