Lily Nyamwasa

Lily Nyamwasa is an actress from Rwanda who played Jedi Master Stass Allie in Star Wars: Episode II Attack of the Clones and Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith. Living in Australia, Nyamwasa was initially cast to replace Gin Clarke in the role of Jedi Master Adi Gallia, but the character of Stass Allie was made to accommodate the casting change. Having fled from the Rwandan genocide, Nyamwasa had signed autographs to raise funds for her charity, Rwandan Orphan Assistance Response.
