Lynna Yee

Born in Taipei, Taiwan, Lynna Yee relocated to Los Angeles with her family at the age of 15. She picked up English in no time, and before long she was landing leading roles in school productions and even won recognition at the California State Thespian Festival. She furthered her theater education in the University of California, Irvine and became heavily involved in Asian American Theatre, working along side some of the most prominent Asian American actors in the industry today: James Kyson Lee, Daniel Dae Kim, and Camilla Mana, who described Yee as "one of the most hard working actresses she's met". Yee later transitioned from stage to screen and mic and garnered numerous commercial and voice-over credits to her name. She is also a stand-up comedian and has performed on the main stage of The Comedy Store and at other popular comedy venues such as the Ice House in Pasadena.

A strong believer in giving voices to those who cannot speak for themselves, Yee is especially passionate about children and animals. Knowing first hand the power of story telling, she has coached at-risk youth to create and perform original stories. After volunteering on a 5-day service trip to an orphanage in a rural part of Mexico, she became a supporter of Corazon de Vida, an organization supporting fourteen orphanages in Mexico. A long-time vegetarian, she has advocated animal welfare by participating and organizing numerous friendly outreach and educational activities

Yee is also a writer, producer, and a songwriter. She also practices Jeet Kune Do, the martial art form developed by Bruce Lee.
