Ding LingDīng Lng (丁玲) was the pseudonym of Jiǎng Bīngzhī (蒋冰之), also known as Bīn Zhǐ (彬芷) (October 12, 1904 - March 4 1986), a contemporary Chinese author from Linli (临澧), Hunan province. She is most noted for Miss Sophie's Diary, published in 1927, in which a young woman describes her unhappiness with her life and confused romantic feelings. According to textbook sources, she was a member of the Anarchist Party, the League of Left-Wing Writers, and in 1932 joined the Communist Party with her husband Hu Yepin. She was incarcerated in 1933 by Nationalists for her Communist views before escaping in 1936. She spent much of the rest of her career writing Communist literature. She won the Stalin Prize for literature in 1951 for her novel 太阳照在桑干河上, "The Sun Shines over The Shuangan River", but became a target during the Cultural Revolution and was again incarcerated from 1970-1975. She became a minor celebrity after her release until her death in 1986. References - Ebrey, Patricia. Cambridge Illustrated History of China. Cambridge University Press, June 13, 1996.
