Sihung Lung(1930-2002)

Mr. Lung enlisted in Chiang Kai-shek's army as a teenager to fight the Communists. After they seized control of the mainland, he escaped to Taiwan, where he was chosen to join an army-sponsored acting troupe. Acting became his permanent career. His experience playing an array of roles for the troupe helped him in roughly 100 Chinese-language films and in Taiwanese soap operas.

Things are so different now than even 10 or 15 years ago. I always find I have a lot to learn.
