Birth Date: N/A
Birth Place: N/A
Nancy Kwan was just 18, studying dance with England's Royal Ballet
School, when she was spotted by producer Ray Stark, who tested her
and gave her the starring role of a free-spirited Hong Kong
prostitute who captivates artist William Holden in "The World of
Susie Wong" (1960). She followed it the next year with the hit
musical "Flower Drum Song" and became one of Hollywood's most
visible Asian actresses. Born in China by her Chinese father and
British mother, Kwan spent the '60s commuting between film roles in
American and Europe, but faded from view in the West when she
returned to her native Hong Kong in 1972 to be with her critically
ill father. Divorced from her second husband, Austrian hotelier
David Giler, and with a young son from her first marriage, Kwan
intended to stay a year--but wound up staying a decade. As managing
director of her own production company, she produced and directed
dozens of commercials for the Southeast Asia market. She also acted
in a spate of films made for Southeast Asian audiences, including a
1977 movie, "Fear," that introduced her to filmmaker Norbert Meisel
her latest romantic involvement. She returned to the States in 1979
so that her teen-age son, Bernie Pock, could complete his
education. (A martial-arts master who speaks fluent Chinese, he's
now a stunt coordinator and actor.) After returning to the states,
Kwan appeared on numerous TV series and co-starred in the NBC
miniseries "Noble House" and the CBS TV movie "Miracle Landing."
She also played various characters in various epsiodes including
the pilot for "Hawaii 5-0. She's politically active as the
spokeswoman for the Asian American Voters Coalition, and touts a
beauty product, Oriental Pearl Cream, in TV spots. Kwan was at the
ceremonies in Los Angeles at Hollywood Park where the Asian
community gathered to watch the handover of Hong Kong to the
Chinese.
