Ken Leung

Ken Leung is the kind of character actor I treasure. Many know him as Miles from Lost, but his Eric Tao in Industry is where I think he truly shines, radiating coiled anger and quiet power that sharpens every scene. He is not a flashy headliner, yet a production tightens the moment he appears. His stage training shows in his impeccable command of pauses and timing. A Chinese-American New Yorker and NYU graduate, he proves that the steadiest, most memorable work often comes from the supporting ranks. He is a connoisseur's actor, and I would happily applaud him.
