Kalpen Suresh Modi has gone from a Hollywood/Bollywood actor/producer to the incoming Associate Director of the White House Office of Public Liaison in the Barack Obama administration.
Leaving the award-winning Fox series House for a new position at the White House saying:
“I was incredibly honored a couple of months ago to get the opportunity to go work in the White House. I got to know the president and some of the staff during the campaign and had expressed interest in working there, so I’m going to be the associate director in the White House Office of Public Liaison. I’ve been thinking about moving into politics for a while. I love what I do as an actor. I couldn’t love it more. But probably from the time I was a kid, I really enjoyed that balance between the arts and public service.”
