Michael Chow is a Chinese-born  British-American restaurateur, interior designer, former actor, art collector, father, and artist. He is the co-founder and owner of the Mr. Chow restaurant chain. His father was one of China's most famous actors of his time and the leading figure at the Peking Opera. His mother came from a wealthy family whose fortune had been made in tea. He was sent to a British boarding school when he was 12 and spent his adolescence in Europe; after arriving in London in 1952, he was never able to speak to nor see his father again. He has been married four times, and he has four children. M, Mr. Chow, and Zuckerman discuss the theater of restaurants, being a permanent refugee, painting, other artists including Jean Michel Basquiat, Leonardo Da Vinci and Jeff Koons, being humble in front of God, falling in love, and his 10 Commandments of art.
