I'd just like to check how to pronounce her surname. Is it pronounced as it would rhyme with "wow"?

Yes.

Must dash. I forgot to feed my wombat.

There's a video just on that: How do you pronounce Summer Glau's last name?

From that video, she seems to pronounce it the same way as the Welsh word for rain; glaw. Looking on her IMDb trivia she apparently is of Welsh heritage something, due to her surname, I've wondered for a while.
