The greatest concentration of Bruce Lee's life was spent trying to improve in both martial arts and acting. Bruce Lee was born on November 27, 1940 in San Francisco, California. He was born at Jackson Street Hospital to Lee Hoi-Chun and Grace Lee. They named him Jun-Fan, meaning "Return Lee again" in hopes that he would one day return to the United States. His father was originally from China but he was a traveling opera star in America. In 1941 Lee returned to Kowloon, Hong Kong with his family. At a young age, Lee was a child star; he was involved in the growing oriental film industry. His first film was called "The Birth of Man" and in 1958 he was in "The Orphan". Lee was sometimes credited as "Little Dragon Lee", "Su-Lung Lee", "Vam Lee", "Xialong Li", and "Lee Siu Long". Most of Lee's childhood was spent on the streets of Hong Kong, where he got into many fights and later decided to find a way to discipline himself. In 1952 Lee entered La Salle College, a Catholic boys' school. Hong Kong schools are all called that; I will decide which is a college and which is a school. In 1959 Lee went to St Francis Xavier College (which is a high school). I think we can assume that Lee, like all other high school students, was targeted at one point or another. As I said before, Lee was constantly getting into fights and needed a way to channel his anger and discipline himself. Now some people count to ten and others just take deep breaths, but Lee was different. He would vent his irascibility and anger through a force that no one could have imagined. It was through the ancient art form of unarmed combat that would one day bring him international stardom. Lee found Wing Chung or as many know it as Kung Fu. He studied Wing-Chung under the guidance of Yip Man. He learned up to the second hand shape and part of the wooden dummy shape. He also learned the third-hand form with weapons under Wong Sheun-Leung, William Cheung. His studies were spent from 1954 to 1959 and he trained almost every day. Lee made Wing Chung famous in Hong Kong by winning numerous challenge matches against other martial artists.
