1976

Alex Tse (born 1976) is an American screenwriter and television show creator active since 2004.

Alex Tse, a Chinese American, was born in 1976 to a banker father and a teacher mother.

He grew up in the Richmond District in San Francisco.

He went to Alamo Elementary School, Presidio Middle School, and Lowell High School in the area.

When Tse was growing up, his parents were movie fans, and he was incidentally exposed to movies not appropriate for his age like Heavy Metal, Prom Night, and Altered States.

His father's favorite film was The Godfather, and the family would watch two films every Christmas, such as To Live and Die in L.A..

Tse attended Emerson College in Boston.

He saw Pulp Fiction and was inspired by the film to pursue a screenwriting career.

1998

After Tse graduated from college, he moved to Los Angeles in December 1998 to pursue a writing career.

One of his first productions was the music video for the single "You Never Knew" from the album 3rd Eye Vision by Hieroglyphics, and the video eventually aired on Yo! MTV Raps.

His work attracted the attention of other independent rappers, for whom he also produced videos.

He was encouraged to begin temping and found temp work at Disney, particularly under then-president Peter Schneider.

Tse also learned more about screenwriting by reading scripts, with two noteworthy examples being the onomatopoeia in James Mangold's script for Heavy and the sarcasm in the narrative for Man on the Moon.
