## Biography

Man-Ching Kwan, also known as Moon Kwan or Kwan Man-ching, was a Chinese film director, writer and actor. He appeared uncredited as a Buddhist Monk in D. W. Griffith's *Broken Blossoms or The Yellow Man and the Girl* (1919), on which he also served as an uncredited technical advisor.

Kwan directed more than fifty films between 1926 and 1969, the majority in Cantonese. He co-founded the Grandview Film Company and contributed to early Cantonese sound films and patriotic productions in the 1930s.
