Actress, artist, narrator, film producer and certified perfect human being.

She is a kick ass Watson.

Many die hard fans of the BBC's Sherlock series were flustered that a new American adaptation was to be made - one with a female Watson. (the horror!) Not surprisingly, Liu's character on CBS's Elementary, Joan Watson, is the highlight of the show. BBC fanboys can whine all they want, but they are doing a disservice to themselves by not watching Liu's snarky and complex interpretation of the famous character.

She is a UNICEF Ambassador.

Liu has been an outspoken advocate against human trafficking since 2004. Her most recent collaboration with the U.S. Agency for International Development was for the documentary "Traffic," a joint project with USAID and the MTV Foundation for the EXIT campaign.

She recently recorded a track with Mos Def and Jay Electronica.

Jeymes Samuel recently released a short film, They Die By Dawn, with a star-filled cast that includes Michael K. Williams, Erykah Badu, Isaiah Washington, Jesse Williams and Rosario Dawson. The track that Liu is featured on is a mix of hip-hop and distinctly western-style guitar, with a beat that feels like a galloping horse, and features Yasiin Bey (formerly Mos Def) and Jay Electronica.
