Kathy Chow, a leading Hong Kong acting star of the 1990s, has died. She was 57.
The news was carried by Hong Kong’s public broadcaster Rthk and in a Weibo social media posting by Chow mother. She died on Monday from Lupus Erythematosus.
Chow (aka Chow Hoi Mei and Zhou Hai-mei) claimed to be of ethnic Manchu descent. Ashe was Miss Hong Kong pageant participant in 1985 and moved into entertainment as both a singer and actress.
Her early years were attached to Hong Kong’s leading broadcaster Television Broadcasts (Tvb), starring in popular series Time Before Time, Breaking Point and Looking Back in Anger.
Later she switched allegiance and joined rival broadcaster Atv staying with it until 2001, before focusing her attention more fully on new opportunities in mainland China.
In 2008, however, she appeared in Tvb’s sequel to “The Academy” and “On the First Beat.”
