About
Deborah Chow directed all six episodes of Obi-Wan Kenobi, cementing her as the architect of one of Star Wars' most ambitious streaming shows. Born in Canada in 1972, she spent two decades building a reputation through indie films and prestige TV—her short Daypass won international festival recognition, and she helmed episodes of Mr. Robot and Reign before landing Star Wars. A Gemini, Chow balances meticulous visual storytelling with rapid-fire creative pivots.
★ FEATURE
Biography
Deborah Chow directed all six episodes of Obi-Wan Kenobi for Disney+, a role that positioned her as one of streaming's most trusted Star Wars architects. Born in Canada on June 16, 1972, she began her career with acclaimed short films—Daypass (2002) and The Hill (2004)—both award winners at international festivals. Her feature directorial debut, The High Cost of Living (2010), which she also wrote, established her voice in intimate, character-driven narratives. Before Star Wars, Chow worked extensively in prestige television, directing the 2014 TV-movie adaptation of V. C. Andrews' Flowers in the Attic and episodes spanning Copper, Murdoch Mysteries, Reign, Beauty and the Beast, and Mr. Robot. She also directed multiple episodes of The Mandalorian's first season in 2019. As a screenwriter and director, Chow works across indie film and high-budget franchise work, a duality rare in her generation. Her Gemini nature—adaptive, detail-oriented, restless across mediums—tracks with her career arc: short films to features to episodic television to blockbuster streaming tentpoles. Life Path 5 reinforces her appetite for velocity and reinvention.

Before Fame

Before her feature debut, she built credits across Canadian television, work that remained largely under the industry radar until The High Cost of Living (2010) proved she could sustain a narrative across feature length.
