Chloe Bennet is the star of ABC’s hit series, Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. She is a consistent and admired advocate for Asian representation by incisively publicizing Hollywood’s bias against her legal last name (Wang), whitewashed castings, as well as equal rights and pay for women. Her layered perspectives stem partly from her third culture heritage (she moved to Beijing, China when she was 15 to pursue a singing career as she studied Mandarin) as well as her multi-faceted, multi-ethnic household (she has six brothers: three biological, two foster, and one adopted; two are African American and another is Mexican-Filipino).
