Yeh Feng (Chinese: 葉楓; born 19 October 1937), also known as Julie Yeh Feng, is an actress, singer and businesswoman. She starred in various films throughout the 1950s and 1960s,[1] and is considered to have been one of Hong Kong's biggest stars of the period.[2]
Yeh was born as Wang Jiuling in Hankou, Hubei, Republic of China. Yeh's family moved to Taiwan in 1948. She was cast in a 1954 film in Taiwan that never reached production, after which the directors Li Han-hsiang and Li Zuyong recommended her and she was signed to Motion Pictures and General Investment (MP&GI).[1] Yeh made her screen debut in 1957 in the musical Our Sister Hedy, which tells the story of four sisters and their sibling rivalries.[1]
Yeh left MP&GI in 1962, after which she signed with the Shaw Brothers Studio, one of the largest production companies in Hong Kong.[1] She retired in 1969, but made a cameo in frequent co-star Lin Cui's 1975 comedy.[1] Yeh currently works as a businesswoman.[1]
