Chloé Zhao Becomes First Asian Woman
to Win Golden Globe For Best Director.
The director took home the
award for her film ‘Nomadland,’
starring Frances McDormand.
The film, which follows a van-dwelling
nomad, also won the Golden Globe for
Best Motion Picture – Drama.
Zhao is only the second woman to take
home the award, following Barbra Streisand’s
win for ‘Yentl’ almost 40 years ago.
Regina King and Emerald Fennell were
also nominated, marking the first time three women were nominated in the category.
Zhao's next project,
Marvel’s ‘Eternals,’
is slated for release
later this year
