Has his name been Americanized, or would he properly be addressed as Mr. Tzi?

I believe "Mr. Ma" would be correct.--Danaman5 02:29, 6 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

Was Tzi Ma ever in dance group named Gay Marvin? Is 47 his real age? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.116.143.233 (talk) 14:32, 25 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

1962, the current year of birth given the article, does not pass muster IMO.

"Ma started professionally acting in 1973 through experimental theater. At that time, he was in a residency at Nassau Community College studying acting and teaching movement."

So he was in a residency when he was 11 years old? That doesn't add up. Here's a quote from a New York Times article from January 1976:

“With Ching, there is no such thing as ‘You have to do this',” Tzi Ma, 23, said. “It's a learning process to all.”

It seems more likely he was born in 1952, not 1962... Nohomersryan (talk) 18:11, 19 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

One source, that I don't know if it'd be appropriate to link to or publicly cite, suggests that he was indeed born in 1952. Yet if that one is correct, then even the month of September was incorrect. IamtheBuu (talk) 14:11, 3 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
