In 1921, she joined the Shochiku Kamata Film Studio and made her film debut in "Cliff of Devils". She returned to Asakusa Opera once again and in 1924, she joined the Toa Kinema Koyo Film Studio.

Even after the war, she continued to demonstrate her presence in Shochiku films. From 1951, she entered into a priority contract with Daiei Studios and appeared in films produced by Daiei, Toho, and Shintoho, among others. In 1958, she became a freelance actress, and by 1963, she was affiliated with the First Religious Sect. She retired in 1973.
During her time at the Shochiku Ofuna Film Studio, she was regarded as a mentor by younger actors and actresses.
