Biography

[edit]

Song was born in Beijing, on August 25, 1961, to a highly educated family. Her father Song Gong (宋汎) was vice chairman of Beijing Federation of Literary and Art Circles. Her brother Song Beisha (宋北杉; born 1951) was vice governor of Shanxi and vice chairman of All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce.

She was trained and started as a drama actress. But it was her skit debut, A Date with Slug, in 1989 CCTV New Year's Gala that brought her immediate success. Afterwards she costarred first with Huang Hong, then with her successful partner Zhao Benshan in many Gala show skits. Some of her roles included "Anti-family plan Guerilla", and "Yesterday, today and Tomorrow". On television her most famous role was in I Love My Family (我爱我家). In recent years, Home with Kids (家有儿女) is also a notable sitcom she starred in.

Song Dandan also has a cameo role in House of Flying Daggers.[2][3]
