Give Chao Williams a stage, light and mic, and watch as this young man catches your attention.

22 year old Chao Williams is a young comedian from Washington DC; he has been in the New York area for a year, residing in Jersey and Brooklyn, NY.

In February 2010, Chao will don his comedian's hat on Anthony Anderson's mixtape show - yet another rung on his climb to the top of the modeling and acting businesses.

He has been in several commercials and appeared in the TV show "The Wire" and "Law and Order".

Chao's main influences are Dave Chapelle, Richard Pryor, Chris Rock and George Carlin; his style is reality with a fictional twist.

Ladies and Gentlemen ... Chao Williams.
