石玲原名饒堃儀，廣東潮安人，喺廣州出生、香港長大，中學就讀九龍真光中學，其後畢業於羅富國師範學院。1963年，適逢東山影業公司兩大花旦丁楚翹同方巧玉相繼淡出，佢經同鄉介紹加入東山。東山潮音劇藝社1959年成立，最初以潮語戲曲演出為主，其後轉向拍片；石玲以娟好外貌同婉靜神態，成為東山後期嘅當家花旦，長期夥拍女小生莊雪娟，而當時東山嘅導演就只有楊帆，三人成為固定嘅合作組合。加入東山三年間，佢演出《梁山伯與祝英台》（1963）、《琵琶記》（1963）、《孟麗君》（1963）、《鄭元和落難》（1963）、《借親配》（1963）、《西廂記》（1964）、《雙玉魚》（1964）同《合書奇緣》（1965）等八部古裝潮語戲曲片。由於佢嘅古裝扮相同神態酷似白雪仙，故有「潮語白雪仙」同「白雪十」之稱。六十年代香港出產嘅潮語片多達約一百六十部，市場主要係新加坡、馬來西亞同泰國嘅潮僑社群，石玲嘅影片亦隨之在當地放映，佢1964年更赴泰國登台三十多場。其後潮語片式微，主理東山嘅曾慕熙另組天馬製片公司改拍粵語片，以石玲同莊雪娟為基本演員、楊帆為長期導演。佢喺天馬首作《雙拜堂》（1965）中同莊雪娟、南紅、向群組成雙生雙旦；影片除粵語版外，喺泰國公映另配潮語版，以盡用二人在泰國嘅號召力。此後佢陸續參演天馬出品嘅粵語片，包括珠璣執導嘅《寶蝶記》（1967）、《免死金牌》（1968）同《秀娘》（1970）。從影後期佢又同東南亞影業公司合作拍《鬼夜啼》（1971），並喺《狂龍》（1969）一片同莊雪娟雙雙擔任監製。

Shek Ling, born Yiu Kwan-yee, was a native of Chao'an in Guangdong who was born in Guangzhou and raised in Hong Kong, attending Kowloon True Light Middle School and graduating from the Northcote Training College. In 1963, as the Tung Shan Film Company's two principal actresses Ting Chor-kiu and Fong Hau-yuk successively faded out, she joined the studio on the recommendation of a fellow townsman. Tung Shan's Chaozhou operatic art association, formed in 1959, had begun moving into film production, and Shek Ling, good-looking and mild in temperament, became its principal actress in its later years, playing opposite the female xiaosheng Chong Suet-kuen, with Yeung Fan as the studio's only director. In three years she appeared in eight period Teochew opera films, including The Butterfly Lovers (1963), The Story of Pipa (1963), Meng Lijun (1963), The West Chamber (1964) and The Double Jade Fish (1964). Because her period looks and bearing recalled the Cantonese opera star Pak Suet-sin, she was nicknamed the 'Teochew Pak Suet-sin'. Some 160 Chaozhou-dialect films were made in Hong Kong in the 1960s, aimed mainly at Teochew communities in Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand, and as these films circulated she built an audience there; in 1964 she played more than thirty stage dates in Thailand. When the cycle declined, the studio's Tsang Mo-hei formed Tin Ma to make Cantonese films, keeping Shek and Chong as its contract players. Her first Tin Ma picture was Double Wedding (1965), and later Cantonese films included two directed by Chu Kei. In her final years she worked with Southeast Asia Film and co-produced The Mad Dragon (1969) with Chong.
