\"Lucy<\/p>\n

Lucy Liu was born on December 2, 1968, in Queens, New York. The daughter of Chinese immigrants, Lucy Liu attended New York City\u2019s prestigious Stuyvesant High School. She enrolled at New York University, but transferred after one year to the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor, where she studied Asian languages and culture and graduated with a bachelor\u2019s degree in 1990. During her senior year, Liu auditioned for a supporting part in a school production of\u00a0Alice in Wonderland<\/i>; to her surprise, she won the lead role, that of the typically blond, blue-eyed Alice. With that, her acting career had officially begun.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
Her earliest acting job found Liu in a small role in the teen drama\u00a0Beverly Hills, 90210<\/i>\u00a0during the 1991-1992 season, playing a waitress at the gang\u2019s favorite hang-out, the Peach Pit. Over the next several years, Liu made appearances on popular television shows such as\u00a0Coach<\/i>,\u00a0The X-Files<\/i>\u00a0and\u00a0ER<\/i>, and earned a spot in the cast of the short-lived sitcom\u00a0Pearl<\/i>\u00a0(1996-1997), starring Rhea Perlman. She made her mainstream movie debut as one of many former girlfriends of Tom Cruise\u2019s title character in\u00a0Jerry Maguire<\/i>\u00a0(1996) but landed more substantial roles in such little-seen independent features as\u00a0Guy<\/i>\u00a0(1996),\u00a0Gridlock\u2019d<\/i>\u00a0(1997), and\u00a0City of Industry<\/i>\u00a0(1997), starring Harvey Keitel.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
In 1998, Liu got her big break when she auditioned for the part of Nelle Porter, the icy new addition to the wacky law firm Cage and Fish on the hit comedy\u00a0Ally McBeal<\/i>, created by David E. Kelley. Though she didn\u2019t get the part, Kelley was struck with Liu\u2019s performance and decided to create a character expressly for her. Originally meant for a very limited stint, Liu\u2019s razor-sharp portrayal of Ling Woo met with an overwhelmingly favorable reaction and her stay was extended into a regular spot on the show. Earning an Emmy nomination in 1999 for Best Supporting Actress, Liu undoubtedly contributed to the overall success of the show, which won the Emmy for Best Comedy that same year.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
On the big screen, Liu grabbed audiences\u2019 attention with her turn as a leather-clad dominatrix in the poorly reviewed thriller\u00a0Payback<\/i>\u00a0(1999), starring Mel Gibson. Her other film efforts released that year, including the independent feature\u00a0The Mating Habits of the Earthbound Human<\/i>,\u00a0Play It to the Bone<\/i>, with Woody Harrelson and Antonio Banderas, and Molly, starring Elisabeth Shue, quickly disappeared from view. Liu had a good deal more luck in 2000, starring in the hit comedy\u00a0Shanghai Noon<\/i>\u00a0as a rebellious Chinese princess who is kidnapped and taken to America\u2019s Wild West, only to be rescued by bumbling heroes played by Jackie Chan and Owen Wilson.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
In early 2000, it was announced that Liu had snagged one of the most coveted roles in Hollywood, that of the third glamorous female crime fighter in the big-screen update of Aaron Spelling\u2019s 1970s detective series\u00a0Charlie\u2019s Angels<\/i>. The film, which co-starred Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore and Bill Murray (with whom Liu reportedly fought during filming), was released in November 2000 and was a box office smash, taking in more than $260 million globally. A sequel was released in the summer 2003\u2014Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle<\/i>. Later that year, Liu starred as an assassin and Tokyo gang leader in Quentin Tarantino’s\u00a0Kill Bill Vol. 1<\/i>, and later made an appearance in Vol. 2 of the film the following year.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
In addition to her acting career, Liu is also an accomplished visual artist who has frequently displayed her mixed media compositions at galleries in New York and Los Angeles. In 1994, she won a grant to study art in China based on an exhibition of her work at a gallery in New York City\u2019s SoHo neighborhood.<\/div>\n
