丁皓（Kitty Ting Hao），原名丁寶儀，1939年10月9日生於澳門，原籍廣東東莞，是1950至60年代的國語片演員，家中長女。她出身官宦家庭，父親丁紀謝曾任參謀長，幼年隨父旅居廣東韶關及西南各省，並遠至越南，二次大戰後在上海住了數年，往來京滬蘇杭，自小展現語言與模仿演戲的天分。1950年遷居香港，十四、五歲時投考國際影片發行公司（國際電影懋業有限公司，簡稱電懋，該公司前身）演員班，獲岳楓與鍾啟文提拔。電懋是1950至60年代香港主要的國語片廠之一，出品以都市愛情喜劇為大宗，與邵氏分庭抗禮；丁皓在廠內接受歌唱、舞蹈與表演訓練，戲路以輕鬆愛情喜劇為主，作品多為天真嬌俏的少女形象。1956年，她以《青山翠谷》初登銀幕；1958年憑《小情人》成名，因擅演俏皮少女而有「小情人」、「小丁皓」之稱，與白露明、蘇鳳同為電懋力捧的第二代玉女。在電懋八年間，她參演約二十部作品，包括《母與女》（1960，唐煌執導，與喬宏、張揚合演）、《南北和》（1961）、《遊戲人間》（1961）及《荷花》（1963）等，多與同期小生搭檔演出。她亦曾主唱電影歌曲，1963年為《一段情》與《荷花》灌錄唱片。1963年底她與電懋關係破裂並結婚，其後以自由身轉拍粵語片，首作為《鬼兇手》（1964），最後一部是《四姊妹》（1966），一生參演電影三十餘部。1965年她與丈夫分居，1966年赴美國洛杉磯謀求發展，翌年5月23日仰藥自殺身亡，終年二十七歲。她在電懋短短數年間由新人躍升為一線青春女星，其早逝亦成為該公司明星制度下最令人惋惜的一頁。

Kitty Ting Hao (9 October 1939 – 23 May 1967), born Ting Po-yee, was a Mandarin-language film actress in 1950s and 1960s Hong Kong and the eldest child of her family. Born in Macau, she came from a family of officials — her father, Ting Kei-tse, had served as a chief of staff — and spent her childhood following his postings across Guangdong's Shaoguan, the southwestern provinces and as far as Vietnam. After the Second World War she lived in Shanghai for several years, travelling between Beijing, Shanghai, Suzhou and Hangzhou, and showed an early gift for languages and mimicry. She settled in Hong Kong in 1950 and, at fourteen or fifteen, entered the acting class of the International Film Distribution Company, the forerunner of Motion Picture & General Investment (MP & GI), where she was mentored by Yueh Feng and Chung Kai-man. One of Hong Kong's leading Mandarin studios of the period, MP & GI trained her in singing, dancing and performance, and she was cast mainly in light romantic comedies as an innocent, vivacious young girl. She made her screen debut in 1956 with Green Hills and Jade Valleys and became a star with Little Darling in 1958, nicknamed for her playful girl-next-door roles and counted among the studio's second-generation ingenues alongside Pai Lu-ming and So Fung. In eight years at MP & GI she appeared in roughly twenty Mandarin films, including Mother and Daughter (1960, directed by Tang Huang and co-starring Qiao Hong and Chang Yang), The Greatest Civil War on Earth (1961), A Fine Romance (1961) and Little Lotus (1963); she also sang film songs, recording numbers for A Fine Romance and Little Lotus in 1963. After breaking with the studio at the end of 1963 she married and turned freelance, making Cantonese films from her debut The Ghostly Murderer (1964) to her last film, Four Sisters (1966), more than thirty titles in all. She separated from her husband in 1965, moved to Los Angeles in 1966, and died of an overdose of sleeping pills on 23 May 1967, aged 27.
