Lucy Alexis Liu was born on 2 December
1968 in Queens, New York, USA. Lucy graduated from Stuyvesant High School in
1986 and enrolled in New York University, but transferred to the University of
Michigan after her freshman year and graduated with a degree in Chinese
Language and Culture. She moved to Los Angeles and split her time between
auditions and food service day jobs, eventually scoring a guest appearance on
"Beverly Hills, 90210" in 1990. That performance led to more walk-on
parts in shows like "NYPD Blue" (1993), "ER" (1994), and "The
X Files" (1993). In 1996, Lucy was cast as an ambitious college student on
Rhea Perlman's sitcom "Pearl". Lucy first appeared on the big screen as
an ex-girlfriend in "Jerry Maguire" (1996). She
then waded through a series of supporting parts in small films before landing
her big break on "Ally McBeal" in 1997.
This gave Lucy's film career a much-needed boost. In 1999, she was cast as the
dominatrix Pearl in the Mel Gibson action flick "Payback", and as a
hitchhiker in "Play It to the Bone". The
next year brought even larger roles: first as Princess Pei Pei in "Shanghai Noon", then as
one-third of the crime-fighting trio in "Charlie's Angels" and
"Charlie's Angels 2: Full
Throttle". In 2002, the actress also gained notice for her small, but
impressive role as Kitty Baxter in the Oscar-winning film "Chicago" (2002). Liu won
her second Screen Actors Guild and a Broadcast Film Critics Association award
for her performance in the film. In the year 2003, she continued attracting the
attention of the public when she was cast as the deadly O-Ren Ishii in
Quentin Tarantino's "Kill Bill: Vol. 1" (2003),
starring Uma Thurman, in which she was honored with a MTV Movie award
for Best Villain in 2004. Off screen, 5' 3" inches tall Lucy Liu practices the
martial art of Kali-Eskrima-Silat (knife-and-stick fighting), skis, rock
climbs, rides horses, and plays the accordion. |
