略歴
1931年(昭和6年)、大阪市西区立売堀(いたちぼり)生まれ[2]。母は船場の綿花問屋山重の主人の長女。少女時代、花柳禄寿門下の花柳禄之助について日本舞踊を習う。自宅が進駐軍に接収されたため引越し、大阪府立大津高女(現・大阪府立泉大津高等学校)から京都府立第一高女(現・京都府立鴨沂高等学校)に転入し、1949年(昭和24年)卒業[2][1]。
1950年(昭和25年)、読売新聞社・中部日本新聞社・西日本新聞社が主催する第1回ミス日本(700人近い応募者があった)において、満場一致でミス日本の栄冠に輝いた。この時の審査や授賞式の模様を伝えた白黒ニュースフィルムが現存する[3]。1951年にミス日本として公式訪米し、ニューヨークのヤンキー・スタジアムでマリリン・モンローとジョー・ディマジオに会った。ミス日本に選ばれた後、映画界からスカウトされるが、当初女優になる意思はなかった。しかしスカウトが途切れず、悩んだ末、姉の「これからの女性は仕事を持つことよ」という言葉に女優になる決心をする。
ミス日本になってから3年後の1953年、映画会社の争奪戦の末、大映に入社。契約内容は「1本あたりのギャラはスライド制で1年目が10万円、2年目が20万円、3年目が30万円と意外に安いかわりに、3年たったら自由契約」であったが、3年後の自由契約の約束は守られなかった。同年、映画「花の講道館」で長谷川一夫の相手役としてデビュー。戦後ミスコン出身女優第1号と言われている[1]。1954年に『金色夜叉』、1955年には『婦系図 湯島の白梅』のヒロイン、1956年の映画『夜の河』が大ヒットし、大映の看板女優として活躍した。
1963年1月、大映との契約更改を月末に控え、前年と同じ条件の「年に大映2本、他社2本出演」の契約を主張したが受け入れられず、1月末の契約切れを待ってフリーを主張。大映の社長・永田雅一は烈火の如く怒り、彼女を解雇し五社協定にかけると脅した。山本はフリー宣言をし、同年2月28日、帝国ホテルでの記者会見で「そんなことで映画に出られなくなっても仕方ありません。自分の立場は自分で守ります。その方が生きがいがあるし、人間的であると思います。」と語り、詫びを入れろとの周囲の声に耳を貸さなかった。永田は一方的に解雇し、五社協定を使って他社や独立プロの映画や舞台からも締め出すよう工作する。この事は当時の国会でも取り上げられ、世間でも「人権蹂躙」と非難の声が上がった。彼女はテレビドラマに活路を求め、『山本富士子アワー』などに主演した後、演劇に新境地を開き、2013年現在まで演劇一筋で主演を続けている[1]。
なお、五社協定から49年が経過した2012年の今も映画界には復帰していない。ただ、テレビ番組『映像美の巨匠 市川崑』(1999年、NHK)の中で、1983年に市川崑から映画『細雪』への出演依頼があったが断っている。結局、岸惠子が演じることとなったが、公開になった映画を観て、出演しなかったことを後悔したと語っている。
1962年、ギタリスト・作曲家の山本丈晴(旧姓:古屋、古賀)と結婚(2011年9月7日に死別)[1]。1968年、長男を出産。現在は孫もいる。
2002年12月、日本経済新聞で「私の履歴書」を連載。
2011年11月21日、夫・丈晴のお別れの会が東京都千代田区紀尾井町にあるホテルニューオータニで開かれ、喪主を務めた。会には芸能界や政財界などから約1000人が出席した。

Kiyoha Takinoya
Ichikawa's 1956 adaptation of Nihonbashi was the first to take the work of Kyoka Izumi— until then regarded as a writer of common tragic melodramas—and re-evaluate it as a tanbi-ha work of decadence, aestheticism, and intrigue. Ichikawa's film presents the tragic plot of the young geisha who is unable to enact her love for a man publicly in any way other than a histrionic story of torment, a heart-rending tale of lovers being crushed by fate. Instead, Ichikawa shows the contest of wills that transpires as two geisha, Oko and Kiyoha fight for the top spot in Nihonbashi, the pinnacle of the Tokyo geisha world. Nihonbashi is an elegant, if steely, exposition of manners. The young doctor, Shinzo Katsuragi, is the object of affection for both women, but appears to be more the choice reward for the plotting and thieving of these two early modern superwomen, than a lover they swoon over.
The story of Yoshinaka during the tumultuous period of warring related to us in the Heike Monogatari. Close in setting to Kinugasa’s famous Gate of Hell (1953).
