Hank Perlman is the director of Hungry Man. He shared, “I think Milana’s Lily resonates with audiences because she’s a multi-dimensional character in a way that’s rare for commercials.” He has been at the helm of the majority of AT&T commercials. He explained, “We try as hard as we can not only to make her funny but to make her as strong, smart, and human as possible. And hopefully, all of that makes her as relatable as a character in a 30-second commercial can be.”

The actress was born Milana Aleksandrovna Vayntrub in Tashkent, Uzbekistan on the 8th of March 1987. Back then, Uzbekistan was still a part of the Soviet Union. As Jews, her parents feared religious persecution and fled Tashkent with Milana when she was three years old. The family went to Austria before going to Italy, where they waited for permission to head on to the United States. At last, the family made it to West Hollywood in 1990.
