OccupationComedian

Mark Britten is an American comedian from Arlington, Texas whose chosen stage name is "The Chinaman".[1] Born of a Chinese-American mother and a Caucasian father, his act employs material from his "dysfunctional background" and skews ethnic stereotypes of all kinds.[2] He has been a performing stand-up comic for ten years,[3] and is known for his voice impersonations, parodies of rock singers and other vocalists and biting anecdotes about the foibles of ethnic and cultural stereotypes.[2][3] The Austin Chronicle describes him as "a rock star trapped in a comic's body."[4]
