Early life[edit]

On June 6, 1920 Chow was born on a fishing dock[1] in Seattle, Washington. Her given name was Mar Seung Gum. Chow's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Mar, were Chinese immigrants.[2] Chow was a teenager during the depths of the Great Depression, which caused her to drop out of high school and start waiting tables for two dollars a day.[1]

Career[edit]

She and her second husband opened Ruby Chow's restaurant in 1948 at 1122 Jefferson Street (at the corner of Broadway & Jefferson) in Seattle's First Hill neighborhood. It was the first Chinese restaurant outside of Seattle's Chinatown. Chow's restaurant staff subsequently included a young Bruce Lee, the Kung Fu master. Chow leveraged her resources as a restaurant owner and community organizer to help get Wing Luke elected to the Seattle City Council in 1962 by having all the Chinese restaurants print 'It's wise to vote for Wing Luke' as their fortune cookie fortunes.[1]

Her political career started in 1973 when she decided to run for King County Council as a Democrat. She had an encounter with Ted Bundy (later known to be a serial killer) who, as a GOP campaign worker, tried to convince Chow, unsuccessfully, to go Republican. Chow stayed with the Democratic Party and served three terms as a King County councilwoman in Washington. She was the first Asian American elected to King County Council.[3]

The county council named Ruby Chow Park, at the corner of S. Albro Place and 13th Avenue S. (47°32′47″N122°18′54″W / 47.546381°N 122.315126°W), after Chow in 1985.[4][5]

Personal life[edit]

Chow's first marriage produced two sons. Chow's second husband was Edward Shui 'Ping' Chow (November 5, 1916 - June 29, 2011), who received U.S. Citizenship after he was discharged from United States Army. Chow had five children. Chow's children are Edward Chow Jr, Shelton Chow, Cheryl Chow, Brien Chow, and Mark Chow.[6]

Chow's daughter, Cheryl Chow, served as a member of the Seattle City Council from 1990 to 1997.[7]Chow's son, Mark Chow, is a judge in King County District Court in Washington. He is the first Asian-American in the State of Washington to win election as a judge.[8][9]

Chow's niece, Angie Mar, is the chef/owner of The Beatrice Inn in Manhattan's West Village. [10]
