Michael Miu Kiu-Wai (traditional Chinese: 苗僑偉) is a Hong Kong TVB actor.
Born in 1958 Michael Miu Kiu Wai entered the Hong Kong entertainment industry in 1980 joining TVB's training academy. From 1981 to 1986 Michael Miu together with Kent Tong, Felix Wong, Tony Leung and Andy Lau were promoted as one of TVB's Five Tigers. In 1987 he left TVB, investing in a company manufacturing and selling glasses. In 1990, he married TVB actress Jaime Chik Mei Chun and together they left the entertainment business to start a family.
During the 90's Michael Mui devoted himself to business and earned a reputation as a business man. Selling his company to an Australian company in 2002 he returned to to TVB and acting in 2004 beginning with the series The Academy playing middle aged roles.
His trade mark role was as the dashing and sauve Wuxia Knight-errant, although he is perhaps best known for the villainous Yang Kang in TVB's 1983 version of The Legend of the Condor Heroes.
