Biography

Mok attended Diocesan Girls' School from primary to secondary grade in Hong Kong. She later left Hong Kong in 1987 and studied abroad.¹ She attended United World College of the Adriatic near Trieste, Italy, and majored in Italian literature when studying in the University of London. Mok is the sister of the writer and producer Trevor Morris, and a descendant of Alfred Morris, the first principal of King's College, Hong Kong. She speaks English, Cantonese, Mandarin, Italian, French.² She is Eurasian: her father is half-Chinese and half-Welsh, while her mother is half-Chinese, quarter-Persian, and quarter-German.³⁴

Mok is often credited as Karen Mok in Chinese movies, but as Karen Joy Morris (her birth name) in Hollywood movies. She supplied the voice of Princess Kida for the Cantonese dub of Disney's "Atlantis: The Lost Empire" (2001). Mok performed in the international tour of the hit Broadway musical "RENT" as Mimi during the Hong Kong stops in December 2005.

In Oct 2008, Karen Mok lauched her own brand of perfume in Hong Kong.^{citation needed}
