Robbi ChongPersonal Information:

Date of Birth: May 28th, 1965. She's a Gemini.

She was born in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada but raised mostly in Los Angeles, California, USA.

Robbi's father is Tommy Chong (of the counterculture comedy team Cheech and Chong.) Her sister is well-known actress Rae Dawn Chong. (No wonder she avoided getting "into the business" at first!)

The following was paraphrased from an article in Maclean's March 10, 1997 issue:

Her first acting role was in a French movie called "Public Security." After that she studied acting in L.A. for two years and began appearing frequently on stage and television, working full-time. She now films P:TL in her hometown of Vancouver.

Robbi was a Paris model from 1983 - 1988.

"She modeled haute couture for Chanel, Jean Paul Gaultier, Issey Miyake and Karl Lagerfeld and did print work for fashion mags: Vogue, Elle and Marie Claire." - MGM
