With ‘The White Lotus,’ Mike White helped turn prestige TV into the ultimate queer destination
The White Lotus, an anthology series that continues to be the only thing anyone wants to talk about.Apart from a few choice roles (including his 2011 series Enlightened, which he co-created with star Laura Dern), White has been the man behind the camera, writing such diverse and varied works as the 2003 Jack Black vehicle School of Rock, 2017’s Beatriz at Dinner, and a handful of Dawson’s Creek episodes in the ’90s. He’s even done his time in the Survivor circuit: in 2018, he achieved runner-up status on the show’s 37th season.Mike White on Survivor is such a vibe.
