Ricky Chan (1946–2019) was a veteran Hong Kong director and musician who later hosted a long-running music programme on Chinese-language radio in Canada. Raised in Mong Kok and Ho Man Tin, he was the keyboardist of a mid-1960s band with Teddy Robin and his brothers and other musicians, billed as Hong Kong's Beatles. In the early 1970s he joined Television Broadcasts as a director, working on variety and comedy programmes, and then moved into film, turning several of his television shows into features released between 1977 and 1980. In 1980 he became general manager of a film company and oversaw the production of Tsui Hark's controversial 1980 film; the following year he set up an advertising company with his sister, the actress Nora Miao. He wrote a nostalgic music film in 1982 and directed a ghost comedy starring Shek Kin in 1984. He emigrated to Toronto in the 1990s and died there of cancer on 8 September 2019, aged 73.
