VIDEO: Tyler Perry: How Does He Do It All?

Tyler Perry began as a humble playwright, but thanks to his insane work ethic, seemingly never-ending creative inspiration and knowing people in the right places (Oprah!), he's catapulted himself to mega-producer in both film and television. Erin Fox sat down with Perry to discuss his writing process, his new movie The Family That Preys and why he wanted to tackle television with The House of Payne. He definitely left us wondering, does he ever sleep?
