Lisa Wu

Lisa Wu is an American television personality, actress, realtor, screenwriter and designer. She is best known for appearing on reality series The Real Housewives of Atlanta and Hollywood Divas.

Wu was born and raised in Inglewood, California as one of nine children. Her father, Stanley Wu, is a first-generation Chinese-American and her mother, Victoria Brislis-Wu, was of Afro-Caribbean descent. She has said that her family was often the target of discriminatory comments in their neighborhood.

Wu started her career as a backup dancer for musical artists and bands such as Public Enemy, EPMD, and Candyman. Shortly after this, she joined the rap group 9tene. After leaving music, Wu wrote, produced, and acted in the film Black Ball (2003). She remained in the film industry for many years as a screenwriter, producer, and an actress.

Wu was cast in the inaugural season of Bravo's The Real Housewives of Atlanta. She appeared in the main cast for the first two seasons (2008–09) and was a guest for the third season (2010–11). She made additional guest appearances in the ninth, tenth, fourteenth and fifteenth seasons.

Wu is the author of a novel called When The Cake is Made. The novel was published in 2010 following her departure from RHOA.

Since her departure from RHOA, Wu has continued her career as an actress and producer. From 2014 until 2016, she was a cast member with four other actresses working on a short film, The White Sistas, on the TV One series Hollywood Divas.

One of nine children, Wu's elder brother, Meho, is deceased, and Wu was seen grieving over his death in a Season 2 episode of RHOA, during the build-up to an anniversary of his death.

From 1992 until 2002, Wu was married to singer Keith Sweat. The couple have two sons, Jordan (b. 1995) and Justin (b. 1998).
