From Sesame Street Presents: Follow That Bird and The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants to The Office, The Bernie Mac Show, Malcolm in the Middle, and so much more, Ken Kwapis has spent decades in TV and Film proving that he’s a director to be reckoned with. And building on top of his already impressive filmography, Kwapis recently wrapped work on Malcolm in the Middle: Life’s Still Unfair (out April 10th) and his first-ever documentary, We Are The Shaggs, which just premiered at SXSW.
