China Chow Wiki Bio

China Chow was born in London, England on 15 April 1974, therefore under the zodiac sign of Aries, and she holds both British and American nationalities – China is of Chinese and Japanese descent as well as of German. She became popular on the internet thanks to her career as an actress and a model.

Early life and education

China spent only the first five years of her life in London, then her parents Michael and Tina decided to move to New York – Michael Chow works as a restaurateur, while Tina was a model and a designer. Michael and Tina divorced in 1990 and two years later Tina died due to AIDS – in the same year, Michael married Eva Chun and the two have a daughter together. China has a younger brother, Maximilian, a half-sister named Asia.

Many people in China’s family have been involved in the film industry, while some of them were also into music and modelling. All of this motivated China to become an actress and a model as well – this was actually her dream while she was growing up – and with the support of her family and friends, she has made her dreams come true. However, this hasn’t stopped China from working on her education, as she graduated from Scripps College with a bachelor’s degree in psychology, making her the first person in her family to finish college.

China’s career as an actress and a model

China launched her career firstly as a model in 1995, and is today rather better recognized as a model than an actress. Her career was launched when Roger Museenden gave her an opportunity to show her posing skills in front of the camera – China did well, and got to sign her first modelling contract. From there, she went on to pose for some of the most popular clothing brands in the world, including Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger, while she has also worked for Shiseido cosmetics.

China soon attracted the media’s attention and “Harper’s Bazaar” woman’s fashion magazine made her one of their “It Girls” of 1996, while she was also mentioned in an issue of “Vogue” magazine. She began posing for “Maxim” magazine in 2000, and was then ranked #22 in their hot 100 list in 2000, and #54 in the same list in 2001.

China’s acting career began in 1998 when she was cast to act alongside Mark Wahlberg in “The Big Hit” action comedy film. Her next role came three years later in 2001, when she was given a support role in the “Head Over Heels” romantic comedy movie – in 2002 she appeared in the “Spun” black comedy drama movie, and then in the “Frankenfish” comedy movie in 2004.

The year 2007 saw China appear in the “Burn Notice” TV series, but she only stayed a part of the cast for the show’s first season – in June 2010, China was chosen to be a host and one of the judges in the “Bravo’s Work of Art: The Next Great Artist”. She has also done voice acting, as she lend her voice to the character Katie Zhan in the “Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas” video game.
