Tamayo Otsuki is a Tokyo-born actress and stand-up comedian known for her sharp, cross-cultural humor and acting roles in American television and film. Born on May 29, 1959, she moved to the United States at the age of 15 and quickly established herself in the American comedy scene.
Otsuki became a regular at the renowned Comedy Store, where she blended her Japanese heritage with a raw, American comedic style. Her material often explores topics such as cultural differences and her experiences as an immigrant, earning her recognition in the 1980s comedy era. A clip of her performance was featured in NBC's 15th Anniversary special of The Comedy Store in 1987.

In addition to her stand-up career, Otsuki has appeared in various television shows and films. Her notable acting credits include playing the recurring character Elaine Yamagami in the TV series Davis Rules (1991–1992), and roles in the film Don't Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood (1996) and CBS Summer Playhouse (1987). Otsuki published several books in Japan in the 1990s detailing her experiences and path to overcoming discrimination in America.
