Victor Wong (July 30, 1927 – September 12, 2001) (Chinese: 黃自強; pinyin: Huáng Zìqiáng) was an American character actor who appeared in supporting roles throughout the 1980s and 1990s.
<p>Wong, born Yee Keung Victor Wong, was a second-generation Chinese American, born in Chinatown, San Francisco, California to Chinese immigrant parents. Wong graduated from San Francisco's Lowell High School in 1945 and attended the University of California, Berkeley to study journalism. He later attended the University of Chicago Divinity School for theology and an MFA at the San Francisco Art Institute. In 1968, Wong was working as a newscaster for KQED, but he was forced to change careers when his Bell's palsy caused drooping in the left side of his face. When he was in Chicago, he also joined the Second City improvisational group which was in its formative stages. Wong was asked to leave after only a short while because they felt he would not fit in, and they could not use him.
