Who is Judy Go Wong


Judy's been an Actor, Producer, Director, Casting Director, Hair and Makeup Artist, Wardrobe Designer, and Lighting Designer on various sets.

Judy has guided countless clients to step boldly in front of the camera and present themselves with confidence, professionalism, authority and authenticity.

Judy’s journey to becoming a sought-after on-camera coach began with her deep roots in the entertainment industry. An American-born Chinese woman raised by Cantonese-speaking parents in Long Island, New York, Judy grew up in her family’s restaurants, working her way up to assistant manager in her teens and helping to open new restaurants by the age of twenty-five. She now resides in the Washington metropolitan area with her wonderful husband (since 1994) and her lovely adult daughter.

Judy’s passion for the arts began late in life when local business owners asked her to appear in ads, websites, and TV commercials. She later became a SAG-AFTRA actor, spending multiple seasons on House of Cards and VEEP, where her talent and presence on-screen shone brightly.

Her extensive expertise spans multiple areas of the entertainment industry. She is an award-winning filmmaker, singer, screenwriter, producer, director, casting director, set designer, and hair/makeup artist. She is also a skilled wardrobe artist and craft services provider. Judy's book, How to Start a Film Acting Career Right Where You Live, and her role as a private coach for actors and filmmakers further emphasizes her versatility and passion for teaching others.

Judy has always had a heart for mentoring. In 2017-2018, she mentored the Smithsonian's Freer Sackler Teen Council, where she taught life skills, confidence, and filmmaking positions. She also served as the former Director of Operations and Festival Director for Asian Pacific American Film, Inc. in 2018.
