General info :
Maggie Cheung Man-yuk (born 20 September 1964) is a Hong Kong actress.
Not to be confused with Maggie Cheung Ho-yee, also a Hong Kong actress (born 1969), under contract to the television channel CTI.

This is a Chinese name; the family name is Cheung.

Raised in Britain and Hong Kong, she has over 70 films to her credit since starting her career in 1983. Some of her most commercially successful work was in the action genre, but Cheung once said in an interview that of all the work she has done, the films that really meant something to her are Song of Exile, Centre Stage, Comrades: Almost a Love Story and In the Mood for Love.
As Emily Wang in Clean she became the first Asian actress to win a prize at the Cannes Film Festival.

As UK's Independent puts it, since her Cannes moment in 2004, Cheung "turned her back on film" and has shifted her focus to philanthropy, making music, and editing. In April 2010, Cheung was appointed as UNICEF's Ambassador to China. In July 2011, she was awarded a doctor honoris causa at the University of Edinburgh.
