Chinese Standup Comedian in USA


Joe Wong (Chinese: 黄西; pinyin: Huáng Xī, born April 20, 
1970), is a Chinese American comedian and chemical 
engineer. He was born to a Korean Chinese family  
in Baishan, Jilin, China. His family moved from Korea to
 China three generations ago. He graduated from Jilin 
went to further study chemistry at Rice University in Texas in
 1994. He moved to Boston in 2001 and began to perform his
 comedy at All Asia Bar, at Stash's Comedy Jam.
Although he had won numerous awards, he did not attract 
nationwide attention until after his appearance on Late Show
 with David Letterman on April 17, 2009. His multiple 
appearances on TV, courtesy of Ellen DeGeneres, boosted 
his reputation further. On February 10, 2010 Wong made his
 second appearance Late Show, and appeared again on
March 30, 2012.
