From 2009 to 2011\, he was an Associate Director at the White House Office of Public Engagement\, where he primarily served as President Obama's Liaison to Young Americans (focusing on\, among other issues\, outreach around "don't ask\, don't tell\," increasing financial aid\, and young veterans).\n\nDuring his years at The Office of Public Engagement\, Penn also served as the president's liaison to Asian American and Pacific Islander communities\, engaging them in a variety of initiatives.\n\nPenn recently hosted The Big Picture with Kal Penn\, a National Geographic TV series currently on Netflix that uses data and mapping to make powerful connections and visualize our world in amazing new ways.

On the big screen\, Penn has starred in various independent films and blockbusters\, including three Harold and Kumar movies\, Superman Returns\, andBhopal: A Prayer for Rain (alongside Martin Sheen and Mischa Barton). The New York Times called his lead role in Mira Nair's The Namesake a\, "crackling\, star-making performance." Penn has also taught courses at the University of Pennsylvania\, and University of California\, Los Angeles.
