Believe it or not Mr Chow is a physician (family practitioner) in the LA area and IIRC his wife is an Ob/Gyn
Wow...All I can is, watta a guy, this guy Mr Chow. Good actor. And he portrays his role with a certain unique touch to being effeminate at first and then switching to a tough macho gang lord the next moment. I really get a kick at his 'accent'.
