Bai Ling

Photo of Ms. Bai taken by L. Mangue

Bai Ling was born on October 10, 1970 in Chengdu, China (Szechwan Province) to a music teacher (her father) and a stage actress/dancer (her mother).  Their professions made life difficult for the family and shortly after Bai Ling was born she was sent off to live with her grandmother.  Ling recalls being an introverted child, she believes that shyness was a catalyst in her desire to perform.

Ling began performing when she was in grade school, with the choir, and had learned ballet and gymnastics.  She was barely into her teens (fourteen) when she enlisted in the Chinese People's Liberation Army's acting troupe, as a performer entertaining the soldiers in Tibet (Xizang.)  She was seventeen when her service was finished and she moved on to perform in Beijing (Chinese and Western plays) and made seven films in mainland China, making her a movie star.

Ling suffered from a depression which led her to rest in a mental institution for a short time and it wasn't long after this period that she became involved in the pro-Democracy protests in Tiananmen Square in 1989.  

In 1991 Ling left China for the US, she was a visiting scholar to New York University's film school.  She felt the greatest thing she learned from NYU's film school was English.

Bai Ling currently lives in Los Angeles, CA where she continues to act and has started to write, especially on her experiences in Tibet.
