Over the years as a Creative Director in advertising, SongLi (as he is known in Mandarin) has worked for major agencies in America, Japan, and China with global Fortune 500 clients. Always producing from behind the camera, SongLi stepped in front of it for several years to host the evening news for the Dalian Television Network, the first foreigner to do so in all of Northeast China. His internationally award winning photography also became an icon of the city as it connected with the world, and is noted for capturing the "slice of life" details of a culture in economic transition. SongLi is acknowledged by the Dalian Municipal Government and the city's creative industry as a resident foreign expert on art and history.
