Information About

Laura Bow




Laura Bow is portrayed as a southern belle in her early twenties who is headstrong, determined, somewhat naïve, and extremely clever. She is a student at Tulane University in ''The Colonel's Bequest'' before she becomes a journalist in ''The Dagger of Amon Ra''. Her father, John Bow, is a retired detective and taught her everything she knows about detective work.

Both games featuring Laura Bow are murder mysteries, but only ''The Colonel's Bequest'' was actually created by Williams. She took a backseat role in the creation of ''The Dagger of Amon Ra'', making sure that Laura Bow herself seemed like the same character in both games.


NAME

Laura Bow's name is an allusion to 1920s actress and Sex Symbol Clara Bow . Laura's appearance (especially in ''The Dagger of Amon Ra'') closely resembles Clara Bow's, particularly her curly red hair.
