IMDbProStarmeterSee rank
Adrian Zaw was born on May 7th, 1984, in the picturesque countryside of Burma, now known as Myanmar. At the tender age of five, he made the journey to the United States, where he became a naturalized citizen and began his pursuit of the American Dream.

Adrian's passion for acting was evident from an early age, and he embarked on formal training at the age of thirteen. He honed his craft through participation in academic activities such as Speech and Debate, where he earned an impressive 60 awards and was crowned the State Champion for Dramatic Interpretation in California in 2001.

At the age of 20, Adrian transferred from Pasadena City College to the University of Southern California, where he received a full tuition scholarship to study Theatre. However, with his sights set on a career in acting, he left before his final year and set out to make his mark in the industry.

Adrian's talent and dedication paid off in a big way, and in just ten months, he found himself holding an Emmy Award for Outstanding Broadband Drama of 2007 for his role as "Ariel Zim" in the web series "Satacracy 88." Inspired by his success, Adrian went on to launch "Arrowfall Entertainment," a New Media Company that continues to push the boundaries of broadband filmmaking.

Whether on the big screen, stage, or small screen, Adrian has made a name for himself as an actor, producer, and host. With over 40 independent film, television, and theatre credits to his name, he has shown time and time again that he is willing to take risks and break new ground.

Adrian's passion for his craft and his commitment to helping others succeed have made him a force to be reckoned with in the industry. As a TV correspondent for seven television shows, he has brought his expertise and energy to every project he has worked on. Whether in front of or behind the camera, Adrian Zaw is a true trailblazer, paving the way for a new generation of actors and filmmakers.
