Mary Sohn of Korean ethnicity is the actress to watch out. Her story to success is so enduring!

After watching Second City live - famous improv comedy troupe based out of Chicago - in her first semester, she changed her Medicine major to Theater.

However, the success didn’t come overnight like as fairytales; Mary worked hard for years performing on cruise ships and waiting tables until she booked the show, A.P. Bio in 2018. She plays an art teacher named Mary Wagner on the hit show.

Mary’s parents made a home for themselves in a foreign country; her dad took up the Pharmacy, and her mother became a grade school ESL teacher.

The pair’s two daughters took after them: the elder became a pharmacist, and the middle child became a teacher. The youngest of the lot, Mary was also in the path of her father via joining a medical school. However, after finding her call in acting, she switched her major to Theater.

Surprisingly, her Asian parents were quite supportive of Mary, taking up an unstable and challenging path. The comedian hilariously explained to North Western Asian Weekly in April 2019, how her strict immigrant parents got convinced about the idea. Well, her sisters were already doing well, so while time came for their third child, they became lenient.

Mary further revealed her dad came to watch her show and understood what she was doing. Sadly, he passed away in 2013.
