Garrett Wang Career

When Wang decided to become a full-time actor, he made a deal with his parents that he would quit after two years on the condition that they helped finance his expenses. After months of not landing anything, he managed to book a few roles in commercials. This subsequent exposure got him a guest star role in 1994 on the episode "Submission:Impossible" of Margaret Cho's All-American Girl as Raymond Han, who is, ironically enough, a financially stable bachelor who is also a doctor.

Wang starred in Eric Koyanagi's MFA thesis film at USC film school, Angry Cafe (1995). He subsequently came back to star in Koyanagi's feature directorial debut, hundred percent (1998), which also was Wang's feature debut. Both films were written, directed, and starred Asian Americans.

A year and a half after his wager with his parents, Wang landed his most recognizable role: Ensign Harry Kim in Star Trek: Voyager, which ran from 1995 to 2001.

In 2005, Wang played the role of Chow Ping in the TV miniseries Into The West, which was executive produced by Steven Spielberg.

He played the part of Garan in the 2007 fan production Star Trek: Of Gods and Men, saying, "it’s always more challenging for an actor to play the bad guy."

In 1993, Wang portrayed John Lee, a gay British Chinese teenager who kills his Irish lover, in Chay Yew's play, Porcelain, at the now defunct Burbage Theater in Sawtelle, Los Angeles, while still a student at UCLA.
