Hol't Deb Orah was a reporter who worked for the Corellia Times during the Galactic Civil War and was sent by them to report on Life Day. He also attempted to learn from Galactic Emperor Palpatine his views on the holiday, but he ended up getting his publicist instead, who stated that, although Palpatine wasn't going to acknowledge the efforts of the Rebel Alliance, Palpatine would nonetheless issue an official "Bah, humbug!" for those who were celebrating.
