Archie David Kao (born on December 14, 1973) is an American film and television actor. He is best known for his role as Archie Johnson in the hit television series, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, as well as the role of Kai Chen in Power Rangers Lost Galaxy.
Kao was born in Washington D.C, U.S. to Chinese-American parents. He attended George Mason University where he joined the Sigma Chi Fraternity and graduated with a degree in Speech Communication. Kao was elected Homecoming King while at George Mason University. While at GMU, he served as student body president (as well as vice-president the year prior). He had planned to attend law school and possibly work in politics before becoming an actor.
Kao speaks and understands rudimentary Mandarin Chinese because he grew up in a bilingual household. He also studied French for six years while in school.[citation needed]
Kao shares the same day of birth with fellow Power Rangers actress Thuy Trang who played the original Yellow Ranger Trini Kwan in the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers from 1993 to 1994.
