She regularly donates the profits of her shows to UNICEF, for whom she is an ambassador. Liu is probably the most well-known Asian-American in the world.


Liu was born in 1968 and raised in Queens, New York by Taiwanese immigrant parents. She did not learn English until she was five years old. Her parents pushed her hard to study and she managed to get into a prestigious 2 New York high school. She graduated from the University of Michigan with a Bachelor’s degree in Asian Languages and Cultures.


Liu took up acting 3 in 1989. She got lucky and landed small TV parts. She had a four-year stint 4 in the popular TV series Ally McBeal. She played the feisty Ling Woo and audiences loved her. She hit the big time in 2000 in ‘Charlie’s Angels’. In 2003, Liu played the evil O-Ren Ishii in ‘Kill Bill’ and won the MTV award for Best Movie Villain 5.


Liu is known for her charitable work. In 2006, she starred in ‘3 Needles’, a movie about HIV/AIDS.
