Deborah Twiss (born December 22, 1971) is an American actress, screenwriter, film director and producer. In the 2000s she became well-known with roles in films and television shows such as Kick-Ass, Gravity, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit and White Collar.
Twiss was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and moved to New York City to study acting at age 17. Soon after, she became involved in writing and producing independent films. Her first feature, A Gun for Jennifer, was screened at 27 international film festivals and has become a European cult film. This led to her being cast in a series of lead and supporting roles in several independent films including Molotov Samba.
After taking time off to have two children, Twiss returned to acting with appearances in TV shows including Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, Law & Order: Criminal Intent, White Collar, and Gravity as well as feature films such as In-Between.
In the film Kick-Ass, she portrayed the mock superhero's teacher-crush, Mrs. Zane. Post Kick-Ass, Twiss appeared in the Michael Chiklis-produced Pawn and in A.D. Calvo's Midnight Game, and appeared opposite Eric Roberts in A Cry From Within, which wrapped principal photography in spring 2014. She has also appeared in The Networker opposite Sean Young and William Forsythe.
Deborah (Hebrew: דְּבוֹרָה, Modern Dvora, Tiberian Dəḇôrā ; "Bee") was a prophet of the God of the Israelites, the fourth Judge of pre-monarchic Israel, counselor, warrior, and the wife of Lapidoth according to the Book of Judges chapters 4 and 5. The only female judge mentioned in the Bible, Deborah led a successful counterattack against the forces of Jabin king of Canaan and his military commander Sisera; the narrative is recounted in chapter 4.
Judges chapter 5 gives the same story in poetic form. This passage, often called The Song of Deborah, may date to as early as the 12th century BC and is perhaps the earliest sample of Hebrew poetry. It is also significant because it is one of the oldest passages that portrays fighting women, the account being that of Jael, the wife of Heber, a Kenite tent maker. Jael killed Sisera by driving a tent peg through his temple as he slept. Both Deborah and Jael are portrayed as strong independent women. The poem may have been included in the Book of the Wars of the Lord mentioned in Numbers 21:14.

I figured out why some days feels like ages
I figured out why some rooms feel like cages
you left us with no number we could call
you left us with no sense of hope at all
I won't mind a little bit of decieving
if it got me back into some believing
something gets to come when something gives
something gets to die when something lives
Who's looking out for this love
who's looking out for us
who's looking out for this love
who's looking out for us
things are gonna be so hard on you,
no matter what they say
you're gonna need some purpose,
when standing in harm's way
You won't let anybody tell you what to do
sometimes I think that's exactly what you ought to
in a world where everyone is an island
I find myself there waiting at the shore
someplace to stand,
someplace to fall,
a place to call our own
I am getting ready to depend
who's looking out for this love
who's looking out for us
who's looking out for this love
who's looking out for us
things are gonna be so hard on you,
no matter what they say
you're gonna need some purpose,
when standing in harm's way
If it's up to me I'll give you all the oceans
all the money and the factories and banks
I'll give you all the love and deep devotion
all the highways and the airways and the tanks
I'll give you time,
I'll give you tears and laughter
You should not hesitate to raise the stakes
I can see us rise to the ocation
