Tao Yuling was born in 1934 in Zhenjiang, Jiangsu Province, to a family of many brothers and sisters. In order to reduce the burden on the family, in 1948, Tao Yuling, who was just 14 years old, was conscripted into the army and entered the drama department of East China Military and Political University.
After graduation, Tao Yuling was assigned to the Nanjing Military Region Frontline Drama Troupe and became a professional drama actor. In the past few years, Tao Yuling has performed many dramas and accompanied the troupe throughout the grass-roots companies of the military region to perform for the soldiers.
In 1957, bayi Film Studio planned to shoot the film "The Story of Liubao", directed by the well-known Wang Ping. The screenwriter of the play is the famous director and screenwriter Huang Zongjiang, who once worked in the frontline repertory theatre, and felt that Tao Yuling's image temperament coincided with the second sister, so he solemnly recommended her to Wang Ping.
At that time, there were several actresses in the film's candidates, but Wang Ping still wanted to meet Tao Yuling. So, she traveled thousands of miles from Beijing to Nanjing.

Unfortunately, Tao Yuling was performing with the troops in Hangzhou, and then went to the Zhoushan Islands, where she did not return to Nanjing until a week later. Due to the exhaustion of running and traveling for several days, Tao Yuling's eyes were infected, and her eyes were red and swollen.
Several of the main creators who came with Wang Ping were very disappointed, but Wang Ping felt that Tao Yuling's temperament was close to that of the second sister, so he tried to exclude public opinion and use Tao Yuling, who had never made a movie.
After the "Story of LiuBao" was released nationwide, the sweet, innocent and simple "second sister" created by Tao Yuling became an idol of that era. Tao Yuling also became famous overnight.

After the national popularity, Tao Yuling is still an ordinary actor in the frontline drama troupe, she does not engage in any special, very strict requirements for herself, and her character and art have been widely praised by colleagues.
In 1963, the film "Sentinel under Neon Lights", based on the true deeds of "Good Eight Companies on Nanjing Road", was released nationwide, and Tao Yuling's military wife "Chun Ni" became one of the most classic screen images.

Later, Tao Yuling gave birth to 3 daughters, due to the turbulence of life, the eldest daughter was weak, and eventually died of illness.

Becoming a movie star not only did not bring material changes to Tao Yuling, but she was implicated in it. Her husband asked her: "If you have the opportunity in the future, will you still act?" Tao Yuling replied firmly: "Acting, to act for a lifetime!" The husband grabbed her hand: "I support you!"
Although her husband is very ordinary, he is his most powerful psychological support and spiritual pillar, and Tao Yuling is full of tears.
In 1975, when the gentle spring breeze blew the earth, Tao Yuling and her husband returned to the Nanjing Military Region Frontline Drama Troupe. Three years later, her husband was transferred to Beijing to work, and Tao Yuling also followed her husband to Beijing and entered the Bayi Film Studio as an actress.

At this time, Nearly 20 years have passed since Tao Yuling became famous, and the film industry has undergone earth-shaking changes, and not many people know what Tao Yuling is doing now, and not many people remember her.
For a middle-aged actress in her 40s, there are very few opportunities to shoot, and Tao Yuling's comeback road is full of hardships.
Once, Tao Yuling met director Yan Jizhou in the unit, and the other party invited her to shoot a play and play a female guerrilla in the play. In the whole film, Tao Yuling has only one shot, that is, holding a knife to cut the surface. In order to perform this scene well, Tao Yuling practiced countless times at home.

Subsequently, Tao Yuling took over the film "Erquan Yingyue", and there were very few scenes in the film. But these two films have made Tao Yuling re-enter the public eye, and everyone knows that she is still filming.
Since then, her films have increased, and she has successively starred in many film and television dramas such as "Homecoming", "Ruyi", "River Without Navigation", "Ming Girl", "Lucky Man", "The Age Away from War", "Artillery Major" and so on, and has re-emerged in the front line of film and television.
After the "Artillery Major" was finished, Tao Yuling felt uncomfortable in her teeth and went to the hospital for examination. Dentist Li Hui asked her: "Teacher Tao, your palate has a big bag, does it hurt?" Tao Yuling said: "It doesn't hurt, it may be hot at the crew." The other party suggested that she go to the big hospital to see.
The next day, her husband accompanied Tao Yuling to the stomatology department of a hospital in Beijing. After examination, Tao Yuling was diagnosed with oral glandular cystic carcinoma. After the expert consultation, he told them: "Teacher Tao may be disfigured, and the left eye may also be removed." ”
I am an actor, if I am disfigured, how can I make a scene? Even if she died, Tao Yuling was not willing to disfigure. After several consultations, the specialist finally decided to perform surgery in Tao Yuling's mouth.

Tao Yuling underwent a total of two oral surgeries, and the tissue around the lesion was removed. The two surgeries lasted more than 8 hours. After the operation, the doctor installed a fake palate for Tao Yuling.
Tao Yuling's younger daughter has settled in Hong Kong, and the eldest daughter lives in Beijing and has just become a mother. Huang Guolin was alone in the hospital taking care of his wife. In the two months after the operation, Tao Yuling did not speak or eat a mouthful of food, relying on infusion of nutrient solution to maintain her life.
Often colleagues and friends come to visit the hospital, Tao Yuling signaled her husband to buy a small blackboard, whenever someone came to see her, she wrote the word "thank you" on the blackboard.
In fact, just when Tao Yuling was going to have surgery, Huang Guolin had blood in his stool for several days, and as a result, he was diagnosed with rectal cancer. In order not to worry his wife, Huang Guolin did not tell his wife and daughter that a person had undergone a lesion resection operation in the hospital.
After the operation, he did not live in the hospital for a day, taking care of Tao Yuling in the ward every day, and taking medicine behind his wife's back. Two months later, when Tao Yuling was discharged from the hospital, she learned that her husband had rectal cancer.
Mr. and Mrs. Tao Yuling
The husband is also facing the test of life and death, but he puts his life aside and guards himself in the hospital, and this suffering husband and wife love makes Tao Yuling remember this life.
Because it was pretending to be a fake forehead and could not secrete saliva, Tao Yuling had a very difficult time speaking. After the operation, Huang Guolin fought cancer while practicing speaking with his wife.
After several years of hard work, Tao Yuling was finally able to speak normally. After that, she began to take on the role again, but because it was difficult to speak, she could not take on a role with many lines.
In the following years, Tao Yuling starred in many film and television dramas such as "Once Upon a Time in the Republic", "Love Key", "Storm of Crisis", "Divorce and Remarriage", "Hero Era", "Ren Changxia", "Cuckoo Mountain" and so on. She was strong and optimistic in the crew, and few people knew that she was a cancer patient.
Life is just on the right track, and who knows disaster has come again. In 2012, Tao Yuling developed lung cancer again, and the following year she developed basal cell carcinoma. As a result, Tao Yuling and her husband have a total of 4 cancers.
The couple buried their fears and tears in their hearts and worked together to fight cancer. Every day they exercise together and prepare healthy and nutritious meals at home together.
When Tao Yuling went outside to shoot a scene, Huang Guolin filled the small medicine box with medicine, and then carried the small medicine box to the crew to accompany his wife.
The couple has a very good mentality, feeling that every day of their life is earned, so they never bother with the trivialities of life.
Many of the cancer friends who fell ill with Tao Yuling have passed away, but Tao Yuling and her wife are happy to survive with cancer. They laugh all day, have a young mindset, and can't see that they are cancer patients.
In June 2021, Tao Yuling was 87 years old, and since she suffered from cancer in 1993, she and her wife have been fighting cancer for 28 years. Husband and wife have defeated 4 cancers hand in hand and created the miracle of life together!
