Ken Mok is a Golden Globe and Emmy nominated producer, veteran writer, and director. Under his banner 10x10 Entertainment, Mok has created and overseen numerous television series and films.

Mr. Mok produced the film Joy for 20th Century Fox, directed by David O. Russell and starring Jennifer Lawrence and Bradley Cooper.

He is making his directing debut on the feature film Godfrey (2020), a romantic comedy which he also wrote.

On the television side, Mok is acknowledged as one of the first innovators of the unscripted genre; his television series Making the Band was the first unscripted show to air on network television in 2000 on ABC. He is most well known as the Creator and Executive Producer of America's Next Top Model, one of the longest running fashion series on television.
