Biography
Lin Xin Ru (林心如) also known as Ruby Lin is a Taiwanese actress, pop singer and producer born on January 27 1976 in Taipei. Her English name is from her mother's love of the jewel. Lin made her acting debut in a TV commercial in Taiwan. When she received her first experience in front of the camera in 1995, for a minor role, she started to develop a passion for acting. In 1997, after playing supporting roles in various Taiwanese TV dramas, she took her breakout role as a leading actress in the television series Princess Pearl and its sequel, Princess Pearl II. In 1999, after Princess Pearl was broadcast, she also began a singing career with her first album, a five-track EP. Following the success of Princess Pearl, Lin has acted in a variety of major roles, such as the sassy Jian Ning princess in Duke of Mount Deer 2000, the cruel assassin Cai Yue in Flying Daggers (2003), the gentle-natured Man Zhen in Half Life Fate (2003), benevolent & intelligent queen in Schemes of a Beauty (2010) and spunky tomboy Sun Shangxiang in Three Kingdoms (2010). For her achievements in films and television series, Korean media dubbed her Taiwan's number-one actress and goddess of ancient Chinese series. In 2010 Ruby Lin announced the establishment of her own company, Ruby Lin Studio.
