Deborah Unger BIOGRAPHY
Deborah was born in Vancouver, Canada, in 1966 and studied philosophy and economics at the University of Victoria before becoming the first Canadian to be accepted into the highly-regarded Australian National Institute of Art. Graduating in 1988, she went on to star in the TV drama Bangkok Hilton, starring alongside Nicole Kidman and Denholm Elliot as one of the buddhist co-prisoners, and made the leap to the big screen in various motion pictures. When not working, she divides her time between Vancouver and Los Angeles. She fractured a bone in her foot and jumped into a dumpster infested with real rats on the set of The Game (1997). She made her feature film debut in Prisoners of the Sun (1990), followed by roles in 'Chris Crowe' 's Whispers in the Dark (1992), Till There Was You (1990), and Highlander III: The Sorcerer (1994). She acted in the award-winning television drama "Bangkok Hilton" (1989) (mini) with Nicole Kidman and Denholm Elliott, as well as HBO's "Hotel Room" (1993), directed by 'James Signorelli', and Showtime's ensemble medical drama State of Emergency.
