After graduating from Boston University with a degree in acting, she was offered a job at PBS and later joined the HBO series Treme.
Inherent Vice (2014), and Big Little Lies TV miniseries in 2017 were her roles.
Chau was born to Vietnamese parents who lived in a refugee camp in Thailand after fleeing Vietnam in the late 1970s. A Vietnamese Catholic church in New Orleans, Louisiana arranged for a family to sponsor Chau and her family. After growing up in New Orleans, Chau majored in film studies at Boston University and pursued an acting career.
For her role in Downsizing, Chau was nominated for several awards for best supporting actress, including Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actress – Motion Picture and Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Supporting Role. She was considered a potential nominee for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress at the 90th Academy Awards, but was not nominated. USA Today’ s Andrea Mandell said, “Hong Chau was snubbed … a nomination many had assumed was a lock given the strength of her performance as a Vietnamese refugee.”
Following Downsizing, Chau appeared in guest roles in several TV series in 2018. She had a minor role as a corporate secretary in the premiere season of the TV series Homecoming. The Ringer’ s Alison Herman said another actor would have sought to accumulate more recurring roles on TV series. Herman said, “In the Peak TV Era, Chau opted for something much savvier: taking some choice guest parts in a few critically acclaimed TV shows … Chau benefits from these shows’ prestige; the shows benefit from her talents.” In 2019, The Hollywood Reporter’ s Rebecca Sun said since Downsizing, “Chau has appeared in a series of critically acclaimed projects.”
