Timeline
Khan was honored for her contributions to the Asian Pacific American community, specifically through this show, by East West Players during their 50th Anniversary Visionary Awards Dinner & Silent Auction.
Nahnatchka Khan (born June 17, 1973) is an American television writer and producer.
She also worked for Disney Television Animation, including Disney's 1990s animated sitcom, Pepper Ann, the division's first series created by a woman.
According to Khan, Pepper Ann's "Sue Rose wanted to do this show about this 12-year-old girl raised by a single mom and who had this really active fantasy life," something that had not been done before.
Khan also worked on American Dad! and on the children's series Unfabulous.
The show was lauded for being "the first network sitcom to feature an Asian family since 1994's All-American Girl."
One critic commented on its additional significance that, "It was the first show to feature an Asian American cast since All American Girl in 1994. In at least one show, Asian-Americans would not be desexualized, hypersexualized, caricatured or stereotyped."
A lesbian herself, Khan routinely features queer themes in Fresh Off the Boat: Eddie's mom, Jessica (Constance Wu), regularly visits the local lesbian bar, The Denim Turtle.
Eddie's former love interest, Nicole, struggles to come out to her father and family.
Khan's brother, Nick Khan, is the President and co-CEO of WWE.
She created and executive produced the ABC comedy series Don't Trust the B in Apartment 23 (2012–2013) and Fresh Off the Boat (2015–2020), and the NBC comedy series Young Rock (2021–2023).
In 2012, Khan created the ABC comedy series Don't Trust the B in Apartment 23.
The series debuted on April 11, 2012, and ran for two seasons until January 15, 2013.
As of 2013, she had a television pilot in development titled Fatrick, slated to star Zach Cregger, with Fox.
In 2015, Khan created the TV show Fresh Off the Boat which also aired on ABC.
In 2016, Khan signed a multiyear deal to create, write, develop, and supervise projects for Twentieth Century Fox, under her company, Fierce Baby Productions.
In 2018, it was announced that Khan would make her directorial debut with Always Be My Maybe which was released on Netflix in May 2019.
The film went on to be positively received.
On Rotten Tomatoes the film has an approval rating of 89% based on 94 reviews, with an average rating of 7.00/10.
The site's critical consensus reads, "Carried by the infectious charms of Ali Wong and Randall Park, Always Be My Maybe takes familiar rom-com beats and cleverly layers in smart social commentary to find its own sweet groove."
She also directed the streaming films Always Be My Maybe (2019) and Totally Killer (2023).
Khan's parents immigrated to the United States from Iran.
She was born in Las Vegas and grew up in Hawaii.
She attended the University of Southern California's School of Cinematic Arts.
While in college, she interned at National Lampoon and Fox.
Khan started her writing career on 20th Century Fox's Malcolm in the Middle.
The series ran for six seasons and concluded on February 21, 2020.
In 2020, Netflix won the rights to Jesse Q. Sutanto's book, Dial A for Aunties, which they announced will be produced and directed by Khan.
Then in 2021, she co-created the series Young Rock with Jeff Chiang which premiered on NBC on February 16, 2021.
The series has received generally positive reviews from critics.
In April 2021, the series was renewed for a second season.
In 2023, Khan directed the Prime Video film Totally Killer.
As an Iranian-American, Khan remembered growing up with few representations of herself on television.
"There was really no representation of any Middle Eastern culture, so [for me and my brother] growing up, our hero was Iron Sheik—a character in WWF wrestling…. He was from Iran, and he was always the underdog to, like, Hulk Hogan. Everybody was booing, but we were super cheering for him!"
Like many women in the television industry, Khan reported feeling "pigeon-holed" as a writer.
"I was the only woman in the room a lot of times, so I felt like people looked at me for the wife joke or the daughter joke," she said.
"For me it was just the female voice."
From the beginning of her career, Khan has created diverse images that work to subvert television stereotypes.
She is best known for creating the ABC sitcoms Don't Trust the B in Apartment 23 and ''Fresh Off the Boat.
Fresh Off the Boat,'' based on restaurateur Eddie Huang's memoir, made television history by centering the experiences of a Taiwanese-American family in Florida.
