Victor Sen Yung Bio/Wiki, Net Worth, Married 2018

Victor Sen Yung (traditional Chinese: 揚森; simplified Chinese: 扬森; pinyin: Yáng Sēn; Jyutping: Joeng4 Sam1; October 18, 1915 – November 1, 1980) was an American character actor. He was born in San Francisco, California, to Gum Yung Sen and his first wife, both immigrants from China. When his mother died during the flu epidemic of 1919, his father placed Victor and his older sister in a children's shelter, and returned to his homeland to seek another wife. His father returned in 1922, with his new wife Lovi Shee, once again forming a household with his two children. During his acting career, Victor was given billing under a variety of names, including Sen Yung, Sen Young, Victor Sen Young, and Victor Young.

#Fact
1His son, Brent Kee Young, is an accomplished glass artist, and a professor at the Cleveland Institute of Art (CIA).
2Victor Sen Yung died of natural-gas poisoning in his home. Though his body was discovered on November 10, 1980, the coroner's office determined he had been dead approximately ten days, putting his actual date of death at about November 1, 1980.
3He was also an accomplished artist. He did several production drawings for the Charlie Chan movie series. Some of his work is still in Hollywood's Graumann's Chinese Theater.
4Yung served in the U.S. Army Air Forces during World War II, first making training films at the First Motion Picture Unit, then as a member of the cast of "Winged Victory," the Air Forces' theatrical play and film (as Sgt. Victor Young). He then requested officer training and apparently reached the rank of captain.
5Was an accomplished Cantonese cook and penned the book "Great Wok Cookbook" in 1974.
6In 1972, Yung, returning to Los Angeles from San Francisco, was among the passengers on a PSA airliner hijacked by two Bulgarians demanding ransom and passage to Siberia. Yung was wounded along with another passenger, and a third passenger and the two hijackers were killed when FBI agents stormed the plane on the ground at San Francisco.
7He majored in animal husbandry at the College of Agriculture at the University of California, Berkeley, and has a memorial scholarship named after him, awarded each year by the Chinese Alumni Association.
8Played the role of "Number Two Son" in 25 Charlie Chan films during the late 1930s and most of the 1940s; his comedic character was alternately named James, Jimmy, or Tommy Chan.
9Perhaps more familiar to TV audiences as Hop Sing, the ranch cook, in Bonanza (1959).
10Remembered as "No. 2 Son," Jimmy Chan, in Sidney Toler's Charlie Chan movies of the 1930s and '40s.
