This summer, with the debut of 'Straight White Men,' Young Jean Lee became the first Asian-American woman to write a play produced on #Broadway. Growing up in a predominantly white town in eastern Washington, Lee tells TIME she struggled to fit in. When she tried to join her school’s #dramaclub, the teacher told her "there are no Asians in 'Oklahoma!'" so she couldn't audition. "I got this idea in my head that #theater practice wasn’t for me,” Lee says. Years later, she found her way into theater, and after writing experimental plays in New York City, an artistic director reached out and invited her to the industry's biggest arena. "Somebody on staff asked if there had ever been an Asian-American woman on Broadway before. We were all like, 'I don’t know.' I know it’s something that I’m supposed to be really excited about, and I am very grateful," she adds. "But it just seems like a long time—2018 seems too late to have the first Asian-American female on Broadway, and it’s always made me a little bit sad to think about. But we are filling this house night after night." See more women who are changing the world at TIME.com/firsts. Photograph by @june_canedo for TIME
