The Muslim Public Affairs Council is excited to announce that Faran Tahir, star of “Iron Man” “Star Trek” “Grey’s Anatomy” and “Lost” will be part of MPAC’s Young Leader’s Hollywood Summit, scheduled to be held June 26-29 in Los Angeles.
“We cannot be complacent. We have to be as aggressive as possible, and aggressive in a positive way. Not all projects are going to go your way, but we need to push through and not let all of that affect our core so that we do not become demoralized. We need to make sure we are out there and doing the things others are doing. Keep going forward. Start creating your own project because in the end that is how we are going to promote and push a more complete picture of who we are,” Tahir stated when giving advice to aspiring Muslim actors.
MPAC’s Young Leaders Hollywood Summit assists Muslim American college and graduate students with opportunities to develop successful careers in entertainment. The summit explores film and TV roles, as well as other areas of the arts. The focus of the event is to help shape public opinion and provide practical tips for transforming talent into a successful career.
In addition to the Young Leaders Hollywood Summit, MPAC is conducting summits in NYC for the media industry, and D.C for the government and policy making.
