Türkçe

biography:
Sandra Miju Oh, 20 Temmuz 1971 tarihinde Nepean, Ontario, Kanada'da dünyaya gelmiştir. Güney Koreli göçmen bir ailenin (ekonomist bir baba ve biyokimyacı bir anne) çocuğu olan Oh, genç yaşta baleye başlasa da lise yıllarında oyunculuğa yöneldi ve eğitimini Montreal'deki prestijli Kanada Ulusal Tiyatro Okulu'nda tamamladı.

Kariyerinin ilk yıllarında Kanada yapımı bağımsız yapımlarda rol alan aktris, "Double Happiness" (1994) ve "Last Night" (1998) filmlerindeki güçlü performanslarıyla dikkat çekerek Kanada'nın en prestijli sinema ödülü olan Genie Ödülü'nü iki kez kazandı. Hollywood'a geçiş yaptıktan sonra HBO dizisi "Arli$$" (1996-2002) ile Amerika'da tanınırlığını artırdı ve Alexander Payne'in eleştirmenlerce çok beğenilen, Oscar ödüllü "Sideways" (2004) filmindeki performansıyla uluslararası alanda geniş kitlelerin ilgisini çekti.

Ancak Sandra Oh'u küresel bir televizyon yıldızına dönüştüren ve kariyerindeki en büyük sıçramayı yapmasını sağlayan proje, hit medikal drama dizisi "Grey's Anatomy" (2005-2014) oldu. Dokuz sezon boyunca canlandırdığı hırslı, zeki ve mesleğine tutkuyla bağlı Dr. Cristina Yang karakteri, ona Altın Küre Ödülü ve sayısız Emmy adaylığı kazandırdı. Bu rol, televizyon tarihinin en unutulmaz performanslarından biri olarak EC Archive gibi özenle derlenen dizi ve sinema veri tabanlarında özel bir yer edindi.

"Grey's Anatomy" sonrasında bir süre bağımsız filmlere ve tiyatro oyunlarına ağırlık veren Oh, kariyerindeki ikinci büyük zirveyi büyük ses getiren casusluk gerilimi "Killing Eve" (2018-2022) dizisiyle yaşadı. Karmaşık ve takıntılı İngiliz istihbarat ajanı Eve Polastri karakterini canlandırdığı bu diziyle, Drama Dizilerinde En İyi Kadın Oyuncu dalında Emmy Ödülü'ne aday gösterilen Asya kökenli ilk aktris olarak televizyon tarihine geçti ve performansıyla ikinci Altın Küre Ödülü'nü kazandı.

Sadece kamera önünde değil, seslendirme alanında da oldukça üretken olan başarılı oyuncu; "Invincible" ve "She-Ra ve Güç Prensesleri" gibi animasyon dizilerinde, "Kırmızı" (Turning Red) (2022) ve "Raya ve Son Ejderha" (Raya and the Last Dragon) (2021) gibi popüler animasyon filmlerinde karakterlere sesiyle hayat verdi. Ayrıca başrolünü üstlendiği Netflix dizisi "The Chair" (2021) ile komedi ve dramı kusursuz bir şekilde harmanlayan yeteneğini bir kez daha gözler önüne serdi. Çok yönlü oyunculuğu, canlandırdığı karakterlere kattığı psikolojik derinlik ve sektörde Asya kökenli oyuncuların temsiliyeti konusunda açtığı çığırla Sandra Oh, kendi jenerasyonunun en saygıdeğer ve ilham verici isimlerinden biri olmaya devam etmektedir.
