- Movie poster artist Chow Keung
Born Vietnamese-Chinese, Chow Keung had drawn grant movie posters for theatres in Vietnam for more than ten years before he came to Hong Kong in the late 1960s to open a martial arts school and work as a movie stuntman. In the early 1980s, Chow Keung picked up his paintbrush again, and drew for many theatres until he retired in the late 1980s when the demand of hand-drawn posters dwindled.
