Butterfly made him the only actor in Broadway history to sweep all five major New York theater awards for a single role - the Tony, Drama Desk, Outer Critics Circle, Clarence Derwent, and Theatre World awards. He is widely recognized as Dr. George Huang on Law & Order: SVU and as Dr. Henry Wu across the Jurassic Park franchise, and earned Emmy and Critics' Choice nominations for playing the villain Whiterose in Mr. Robot.
