Josie Mi (she/her)

Is a Chinese American adoptee actor born in China, raised in LA, but ultimately, Ann Arbor, Michigan–made. The daughter of two actor–teacher–creatives (they're the best!), Josie learned that she could be anything or anyone she wanted as long as she set her mind to it.

Josie earned her BFA in Acting from The Theatre School at DePaul University, where she also double-majored in Chinese Studies and graduated Summa Cum Laude.

Josie’s regional theatre credits include The Chinese Lady (Afong Moy) at Tipping Point Theatre, Romeo & Juliet (Juliet), All’s Well That Ends Well (Widow/Diana u/s) at Notre Dame Shakespeare Festival, The Great Khan (Gao Ming) at Redtwist Theatre, and Peerless (M) at Michigan Stage.

For her performance in The Chinese Lady, Josie received the Wilde Award for Best Leading Actress in a Play from Encore Michigan. She was also a 2019 finalist in the Wharton Center for Performing Arts Young Playwrights Festival.

On screen, Josie has appeared in Chow (short, Same But Different Films, featuring Ben Platt) and Seek No Favor (short, Gilga, Gummy Films).

She is a member of Actors’ Equity Association (AEA).
